Tripura to Launch Green Corridors for Faster Ambulance Transit

Tripura's state administration has unveiled a new green‑corridor program aimed at streamlining ambulance movement across the state. Under the scheme, traffic signals and road users will be instructed to give way to ambulances, creating a clear path for emergency vehicles.
The initiative is expected to reduce travel time for medical emergencies, thereby improving patient outcomes in critical situations. Officials say the corridors will be operational on major arterial routes first, with plans to expand based on performance data.
Implementation will involve coordination between the health department, traffic police and local municipalities. Training sessions for drivers and public awareness campaigns are slated to begin within weeks, ensuring smooth adoption of the priority system.
The government has not disclosed a specific launch date but indicated that the program will be rolled out in phases over the coming months.
