Traffic jam in Dhaka city.

<< < (4/5) > >>

nadimhaider:
 It's very painful & time waste traffic jam but not rickshaws also huge number of private car.

R B Habib:
We all should be aware of the fact, be concerned to make a change and then/ at the same time Government must implement policies to lessen the pain. Only then we can expect change. I have seen our neighbor country like India where every road is under 24-hour surveillance (at least in Delhi) & people follow and abide by signals. I hardly found any traffic jam during my multiple visits.
If and only traffic jam (*definitely another one is Political hassles  ;) ) is lessen from Dhaka we can go much ahead that what we are today undoubtedly.

 live in Dhaka, only 20 minutes away from my university; but I get out from my house about 1 hour and 15 minutes before class will start. Because of terrible traffic jam, most of the time it takes about an hour to reach university. I remember a week, right after Eid-ul-Fitr Dhaka city was like half empty, at that week I went to university in 20 minutes.

Dhaka is a mega city. More than twelve million people live here. Day by day the number is increasing and most part of Dhaka is badly affected by the population growth. More than 7 hundred thousand rickshaws ply the city road, but only 75 thousand have legal number. This huge number of rickshaws is creating traffic jam. From time to time attempts are made to reduce the number, but the initiative usually produces no results. The number of rickshaw pullers is huge. Almost there are no roads or street or lane free from traffic jam.

The time wasted in traffic jam could be used for some productive works. Nevertheless, this jam makes us tired, exhausted, irritated. >:(

15 mins= 90 mins (by traffic jam)
