Sahaya - Emergency Vehicle Tra

An emergency vehicle is any vehicle that is designated and authorized to respond to an emergency in a life-threatening situation. These vehicles are usually operated by designated agencies, often part of the government, but also run by charities, non-governmental organizations and some commercial companies. Many emergency response vehicles (especially those of the main police, fire and ambulance services) are likely to be fitted with audible and visual warning devices, which are designed to facilitate their movement through traffic to reach their destination, and to provide some protection on the scene. However, given the current condition of our roads in major cities in India, moving through these traffic junctions is very challenging even for these vehicles.

Emergency Vehicles if delayed for a couple of seconds can cause a major loss for some. At any time, these vehicles are to be moved from source to destination point in most Effective time. Movement of these vehicles should be in- time and safe. This requires routing the emergency vehicle and making traffic control signal as per these vehicle movements.

This is a simple yet effective solution that tracks the movement of these vehicles and informs the nearby personal manning the traffic or the automated signal management systems to free the signal towards direction of the vehicle as it approaches these junctions.
