ABSTRACT
The work presents a design of a computerized transport ticketing and loading system for transport administration. A computerized transport ticketing and loading system for transport administration is concerned with the computerization of customers’ ticket and load information in order to achieve the aims and objectives of the organization.
The entrance of computer into the transport ticketing and loading system for transport administration will help create and maintain efficient records. The purpose of this project is to examine what passengers require from their ticketing system with regard to the means and method of payment and the kind of information they require from the transport companies. Ticketing system is any system used for the issuing of tickets to the passengers.
The design was implemented to facilitate the comprehensive record of all data/Information for a transport administration. It will be less time wasting and cheap to run.
This ticketing system is implemented with visual basic programming language and Microsoft access for the database. Visual basic programming language is used for the creation of the program interface. This interface is linked to Microsoft Access for effective ticket record keeping.
ORGANIZATION OF WORK
This project work is primarily designed to give an insight to transport ticketing and loading system.
Chapter one talks about introduction to transport ticketing and loading system, study of problem and objectives as well as definition of the scope.
Chapter two comprises the literature review. Chapter three gives the detailed information about the existing (old) system, while chapter four and five deals with the design and implantation of new system.
Chapter six documents the project work, while chapter seven summaries, conclusion and suggestions were made.

INTRODUCTION
Computerized Transport Ticketing and Loading System, CTTLS) is an information system used by transport companies to track the ticket and load record of their passengers. The term information system sometimes refers to a system of persons, data records and activities that process the data and information in an organization, and it includes the organization’s manual and automated processes. It an effective tool in the hand of many organization for proper record keeping.
Transportation is conveyance of people or property from one place to another. Modern commercial transport includes all the means and facilities used in the movement of people or property, and all services involved in the receipt, delivery, and handling of such property. The commercial transport of people is classified as passenger service and that of property as freight service. Transport is one of the largest industries in the world. It becomes increasing important for the transport organization to document all their ticket and load information in case for reference purpose and adequate planning.
The
transport industry has sought to standardize loads for efficient handling
through different transport media, i.e. road, rail, sea and air–in particular
by adopting standard available load capacity through containerization, some
load characteristics do not lend themselves readily to containerization or in
particular the loading into containers. Thus the potential economies of scale
of bulk load transport are difficult to realize.
A `container` has prescribed shape and volume upon a given base floor area, along
with a maximum loaded weight, and may be physically enclosed with side and end
walls and a roof, or some of these may be omitted, with a limiting case of a
simple load platform with some tie down and stacking points.
Enclosed containers pose particular loading constraints, since loading from above is precluded by the container roof and apart from curtain-sided variants loading is generally restricted to one narrow end. For example, at one end of the scale, bulk individual loads such as steel girders have hitherto not readily been containerized, not least because of the impracticality hitherto of loading the attendant distributed weight from one end–i.e. the load centre of gravity is difficult to approach with conventional loaders.
At another extremity, small unit loads, such as cans of foodstuffs or drink may have to undergo several successive packaging steps, e.g. cartons or crates, stacked upon pallets and shrink wrapped for stability, to fill a container–i.e. they cannot economically be loaded individually, and even when grossed into larger multiple units, these are still much less than an individual container capacity.
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
Owing to:
The difficulties transport officer encountered keeping passenger’s information/data.
Difficulties face in retrieving passenger’s information at time of emergency.
Difficulties passenger’s encountered when searching for their load information.
Time wasted in searching for passenger’s load information on packed files.
The need arise for the development of transport ticketing and loading system for effective record keeping.
