Abstract: The urban planning of Accra has become very essential to develop the capital city of Ghana. The inability of the local government authority to efficiently managed billboards in the city by easily tracking the locations of installed billboards and effectively segregate the expired mounted billboards from the unexpired ones has become a major challenge. The need for an efficient system to properly manage billboards within Accra Metropolitan Assembly has become very essential. A web base system is developed to efficiently manage all billboards installed within the Accra Metropolitan Assembly in other to segregate the expired billboards from the unexpired ones and to improve revenue collection for the local authority. The Rapid Application Development model is adopted in designing the system using PHP, MySQL database, Bootstrap and JavaScript technologies. The developed system proves to be very efficient in managing billboards at various locations within Accra and the system also facilitates the easy collection of revenue for the metropolitan assembly.
