NHAI to Introduce Live Tracking System for Ambulances and Patrol Vehicles

The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has announced plans to equip patrol vehicle teams with dedicated Android mobile phones and provide tablets for ambulance crews. This initiative aims to enhance communication and operational efficiency for on-road assistance teams.

The introduction of mobile devices is expected to facilitate real-time updates and coordination during emergencies, significantly improving response times to incidents on national highways. Furthermore, the tablets for ambulance crews will enable access to vital information and enable better record-keeping and communication with hospitals.

This initiative is part of NHAIs broader strategy to ensure the safety and security of travelers on national highways, which are essential corridors for transportation across the country. The move aligns with the government’s ongoing efforts to upgrade infrastructure and technology in the transportation sector. Further details on the rollout timeline and training for personnel using these devices have yet to be announced.
