Indian Railways was established on 16 April, 1853. For the past decades, the vertical lift forms, swings and foot-over bridges were used in railway stations .But it is difficult for aged and handicapped persons to reach the other platform through the foot-over bridges. To provide the flexible bridge for the railway platforms in order to overcome these difficulties in the usage of foot-over bridges in railway stations. It is planned to go with a pair of IR(Proximity) sensors on either side of the railway station at certain distance. Initially, the flexible bridge is connected between the platforms which are fixed at one end and other end is movable by the functioning of the sensors and control unit.

Abstract
Indian Railways was established on 16 April, 1853. For the past decades, the vertical lift forms, swings and foot-over bridges were used in railway stations .But it is difficult for aged and handicapped persons to reach the other platform through the foot-over bridges. To provide the flexible bridge for the railway platforms in order to overcome these difficulties in the usage of foot-over bridges in railway stations. It is planned to go with a pair of IR(Proximity) sensors on either side of the railway station at certain distance. Initially, the flexible bridge is connected between the platforms which are fixed at one end and other end is movable by the functioning of the sensors and control unit.
