Chief Government Whip and Highways Minister Johnston Fernando today said that all ambulances whether they belong to state of private hospitals will be permitted to use the expressways free of charge with immediate effect.
A toll was levied from every ambulance using the expressways but following the COVID-19 outbreak they were exempted from paying the toll from May 20 until further notice.
Today it has been decided to declare the ambulances could use the expressways without paying any fees, the minister said.
