ABSTRACT

Ride-sharing systems have the potential to match travelers with similar itineraries and time schedules, and to bring significant benefits to individual users and the city as a whole. However, this is a challenging task, since users' requests are not known in advance and they become available a few minutes before departure. In this paper, we design an online ride sharing system, where drivers and passengers send their requests for a ride in advance, possibly on a short notice. Our design is efficient and optimal. This is achieved by dividing the system into two components: the constraint satisfier and the matching module. The constraint satisfier takes as input the spatio-temporal constraints of drivers and passengers and provides feasible (driver, passenger) pairs in real time, and the matching module takes as input the feasible pairs and provides a maximum cardinality matching of drivers and passengers.

CHAPTER ONE

1.0                                                        INTRODUCTION
1.1                                           BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
In Nigeria, Lagos State is one of the most populated states in the country which is known as the “traffic capital of the world.” Lagos State, the world’s densest and fastest-growing city by some measures, and its largest by population, is a case study in how this problem got so bad—and why it’s so difficult to solve
Like many developing-country capitals, Nigeria’s infrastructure doesn’t match the scale of its population.
Lagos State also suffers from the absence of a deliberate road network, feeder streets leading to arterials leading to highways. There are many major intersections, but only few traffic lights, many of which don’t work. That means the already stretched-thin police force isn’t enforcing driving or parking rules—they’re in the intersections, directing traffic.
Paradoxically, the poor infrastructure is one of the reasons why the city is growing so fast. Without roads or trains to whisk them to the suburbs, Lagos State residents have no choice but to crowd into the middle, set up slums between high-rises, and walk to work.
In Lagos State it is getting very difficult for people to move from one place to another place because of the lack of Intra-city public transportation, traffic jam caused by extra transport vehicles on the streets and for disorganized traffic system in the main cities especially in Lagos State.
This is a huge challenge because we don't have a long urban history and corresponding development of cosmopolitanism. Thus, in addition to providing technical solutions for the roads or developing sufficient street infrastructure, there needs to be a concerted social campaign to build a culture of abiding by urban laws. The reality is that this social transformation may need a generation or two before people would find value in the collective adherence to the rule of law.
Achieving that goal sooner would depend on how quickly we can revise an urban problem like street congestion in human terms. Technology is easy to fix. Human conditions aren't. The sooner we realize that Lagos’ traffic congestion is not a problem of transportation engineering alone the better. This is also a problem of culture. It is much more than a result of broken bureaucracy, inadequate infrastructure, and ad-hoc planning
The first step to minimize the traffic crisis would be to combine the social awareness of an urban order with context-specific technical solutions. Developing social awareness itself warrants reorienting some of the prevalent urban thinking that blatantly promotes private automobile-centric planning. That is, provide more roads to accommodate more private cars, while the utility of mass transit remains an idealistic talking point. The share of private cars in Lagos’ daily commutes is a negligible 5-10 percent, but private cars occupy a staggeringly asymmetrical 70-80 percent of the road space.
Students in Nigeria city face a major problem in transportation- especially for someone who does not have their own transport. Regular commuters- in particular, have a difficult time for the severe shortage of quality public transport facilities. Buses are always overcrowded, and may not be feasible modes of transport, particularly for female students. The brunt of rush hour traffic is largely felt by students who have to be at their designated places within a specific time.
Heavy rush hour traffic coupled with a serious lack of transport options means commuting from home to school/ college/ university and vice versa can be quite afflicting indeed.
Students who manage to get a ride also face a major problem which is security. Students especially female always face a security threat if they are travelling alone.
In such a scenario, a service we can provide with that could seriously benefit the commuters. Cabling is already an established notion in many countries, and several countries, including the USA, actually has separate lanes on the highways for Car-poolers.
The reasons we need car-pooling/ Ridesharing platform in Nigeria specially in Lagos State:
  • Lack of Intra-city public transportation in comparison to the number of people.
  • Traffic jam caused by extra transport vehicles on the streets.
  • Disorganized traffic system.

Students suffer most in this case because only few of them can afford their own private transport and they may need to travel to a long distance from their home to Campus.
According to Wikipedia: when a web-platform and websites act as broker or ride-sharing exchanges between prospective drivers and passengers. E-Rideshare and Ride-ster use web portals to match drivers and passengers. Their services seem geared more toward commuters interested in sharing the expenses of ride-sharing/ Ride sharing.
Ride-sharing is one of the common means of transport for many passengers, especially those who work in the same office or nearby offices. The option is especially a good idea to consider if you do not have your own vehicle and also if you do not want to experience the trouble related to travelling in public transport.
We can summaries that, Ride-sharing is a necessary mean that should have been introduced in our modern society for the betterment of our citizens and mainly students on their daily transport system in the country


1.2                                                  PROBLEM STATEMENT
Over populated is stated as the major cause of traffic jam on the road. In Nigeria, Lagos State is one of the cities that is known as the most populated that faces higher level of traffic congestion. Traffic congestion causes delays and air pollution, not the less-tangible losses in quality of life and social capital.
Paradoxically, the poor infrastructure is one of the reasons why the city is growing so fast. Without roads or trains to whisk them to the suburbs, Lagos state residents have no choice but to crowd into the middle, set up slums between high-rises, and walk to work.
In Lagos it always difficult for people to move from one place to another place because of the lack of Intra-city public transportation, traffic jam caused by extra transport vehicles on the streets and for disorganized traffic system in the main cities. In the educational system, traffic congestion causes students ( e.g Lagos state university’s students) from getting to their destination in time. In order to overcome this problem, ride sharing transportation system is used. It minimizes the traffic crisis.


1.3                                      AIM /OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT
The main aim of this work is to design ride sharing transportation system. The objectives are to do the following three things:

  • Reduce traffic congestion
  • Reduce the number of trips a vehicle makes
  • Reduce the emissions that come from vehicles

1.4                                            ADVANTAGES OF THE STUDY
Ride sharing transportation system offers the following advantages:

  • Flexibility: Drivers can choose which fares to accept, and work as much or as little as they like.
  • Accountability: Services allow drivers to rate riders and report abusive behavior. In addition, customers typically have to create an account with personal information to request a ride. So, unlike a taxi, theoretically, each ride can be traced to a specific customer.
  • Extra Income: While some drivers work full-time, others drive around their regular work or school schedules to earn extra money. Or drive for extra income during retirement.
  • Instead of fighting for space on an overcrowded bus, or paying alone for expensive auto rickshaw/taxi rides. They can sign up and use this website/mobile application to find a ride to share with other students who are willing to go to the same destination. After all, sharing the ride will split the cost.
  • The money you’ll save from reduced fuel usage is one of the best reasons to ride-sharing. Depending on the size of your ride-sharing and distance of your commute, you could save hundreds or thousands of dollars every year. But ride-sharing doesn’t just benefit your wallet; it can positively affect the environment and the traffic in your area and it can add usable time to your day. Here are five ways ride-sharing does more than just save gas.
  • Ride-sharing saves money and reduces congestion on our roads and highways. It also gives you the opportunity to develop new friendships with other students. There are a number of benefits when two or more people share a ride in one vehicle.
  • Reduce your carbon footprint – According to rideshare.com, every car annually emits its own weight in carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Ride-sharing reduces that amount significantly. If you ride-sharing to and from work, you could probably cut your transportation emissions number in half, or even better.

1.5                                             LIMITATION OF THE STUDY
Challenges that make people not to use ride sharing transportation system are:

  • Risk: The worker in the sharing economy, rather than the company, takes on much of the risk. Income can be irregular, and drivers may have limited or no access to programs and benefits, such as workers compensation. And, while services typically have liability insurance for when you are transporting a passenger, your personal auto policy might not cover you, for example, if you get in a crash after dropping the passenger off.
  • Legal Considerations: Aside from the insurance issue mentioned above, there are other concerns as well. For example, in some areas, the very legality of the services is in question, and cities have actually cited drivers for operating an illegal taxi service.
  • Fees: Each service takes a cut of what the customer pays for the ride.

1.6                                                BENEFITS OF THE STUDY
Usable commute time – If you drive to work alone every day, the time spent behind the wheel is essentially wasted. Driving demands our complete attention, which means it’s difficult to be productive with your time on the road. Riding in a ride-sharing allows you to check and answer email, read the news, check bank balances, or even close your eyes for a few minutes before starting your day.
Save money – In addition to the money you’ll save by using less gas, some cities have initiated programs that reward ride-sharers with cash. The Clean Air Campaign, located in Georgia, motivates ride-sharing with money and prizes.
Reduce traffic congestion – The benefits of ride-sharing on a large scale are huge. Every ride-sharing participant takes another car off the road, which means less congested roads and highways. As more people take part in ride-sharing programs or organize ride-sharing within their workplaces, overall traffic congestion will decrease, which reduces fuel consumption, commute time, and the cost of road repairs.
Ride-sharing is beneficial on an individual level and for your community as a whole. It can reduce air pollution while saving you money in the process. If you’re considering ride-sharing as a way to save money on vehicle expenses
