Abstract – The primary aim of the Automatic Railway Bridge System is to assist physically challenged passengers in moving from one platform to another. Crossing the railway track within the station premises poses significant challenges, especially for the handicapped and elderly individuals, who often require assistance from others. In this study, the agents utilize various resources such as train characteristics, driving regulations, and information pertaining to other trains to formulate their action plan. Many elderly individuals suffer from ailments such as leg cramps, walking difficulties, vein issues, and chronic foot pains, making it imperative to address this issue. To tackle this problem, we propose a project involving the implementation of a horizontally adjusted platform connecting both station platforms. This innovation eliminates the need for both adults and children to climb bridges, thereby saving time for passengers and ensuring smoother operations for all.
