C T Online Desk: Passengers on Dhaka-Chattogram highway have been suffering delays due to a 20-kilometre-long tailback that started on Wednesday morning.
The congestion, widening from Dhaka’s Jatrabari to Madanpur in Narayanganj, has resulted in significantly slow vehicle movement.
Kanchpur Highway Police Station Officer-in-Charge Rezaul Haque said that the highway police are actively working to tackle the traffic congestion.
Assistant Sub-Inspector Sohel Rana, on duty at the police station, said, “Many people have been transporting relief materials in trucks and pickups to the flood-hit areas since morning. This has led to chaos on the road, creating a long traffic jam. Our team is working to alleviate the congestion.”
