The Madurai bench of the court gave the direction while disposing of a PIL by one P Palani Kumar of Madurai.
A division bench comprising Justices K K Sasidharan and G R Swaminathan directed that the toll plazas must have a dedicated lane in each direction for entry and exit of ambulances.
The parking should be done strictly on the dedicated parking lot provided by the concessionaire, the bench said.
The Chief General Manager and other officials of the National Highways Authority of India and the Tamil Nadu Road Transport Company must periodically inspect the toll plazas to ensure the conditions of the Concession Agreement are complied with letter and spirit, the bench said.
