Transport generally involves a movement of a person or good from one location to other. But being stuck in traffic has become second nature to a lot of us. Surprisingly India has a road network of over 5,903,293 Kms, as of 31 January 2019. The 2nd largest road network in the world. India in the early years did not allocate enough resources to make or maintain its road network. This has changed since 1995, with major efforts currently underway to modernize the country's road infrastructure. These numbers are good until you compare it with India?s population. Adjusted for its large population, India has approximately 4.63 km of roads per 1000 people. However, qualitatively India's roads are a mix of modern highways and narrow, unpaved roads, and are being improved. There are more than 210023289 registered cars on India?s road as on 31.03. 2015 and the number has gone up ever since.
On average a person spends 3/4hrs daily in traffic commuting from home to office. When everyone is stuck in traffic, there are important vehicles that are stuck in traffic too. More than 30% of deaths have recorded the cause of ambulance stuck in traffic in India, according to the Times of India in 2016. Building wider roads is not the only solution for this. One must adopt a unique plan to cattier only for reducing the number of deaths due to ambulance delay.
Intelligent Ambulance System (IAS) is a system of ambulance working together with an aim to minimize the number of deaths due to delay in an ambulance. The infrastructure of the system is in such a way that the ambulance trailer will be traveling back and forth to the hospital and the required location. This ambulance trailer will be connected to all the major hospitals in the city. Whichever ambulance trailer is nearby the pickup location will be receiving the call. The entrance of the hospital and the ambulance trailer gate will be connected too. To avoid any delay here also. The tracks for the ambulance trailer will be building on the top of the existing roads, and the ambulance trailer will be going over the road and local car under it. This type of ambulance system may take time to be running on Indian roads, but with such careful and critical planning, the number of deaths due to delayed ambulance will drop significantly.
