Tangail-Rangpur Highway

With major lanes closed off, transports navigate narrow lanes as upgrade work of the 190-kilometre Tangail-Rangpur road into a four-lane highway is underway. Launched in 2016, the project was initially slated for completion by 2021 but officials say it is unlikely to be completed by the extended deadline of December 2024. The photo was taken recently.
