The Tripura government will set up dedicated green corridors to give ambulances priority passage, the chief minister announced.
Tripura's chief minister announced a plan to establish green corridors exclusively for ambulances across the state, aiming to speed up emergency response.
The corridors will involve coordinated traffic management, with police clearing routes and granting priority signals to ambulances on major roads.
Pilot projects are slated to begin in selected districts within weeks, targeting a reduction in travel time for medical emergencies.
The scheme forms part of the state's broader effort to upgrade health infrastructure, mirroring similar initiatives in other Indian regions.
Officials said the corridors' performance will be monitored and expanded if successful.
