New traffic regulations at Bijoy Sarani: Commuters yet to reap benefit

Vehicles coming from Jahangir Gate can no longer turn right at the Bijoy Sarani signal as part of a new traffic regulation implemented by the Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP). 

Vehicles from Uttara move at a snail’s pace near the Dhaka airport close to the exit point of Gazipur BRT. Several construction projects including BRT and metro rail have narrowed the road at this point creating bottlenecks. Now, the usually fast traffic has become a commuting nightmare with delays running for over 30 minutes some days. The photo was taken recently. Photo: Syed Zakir Hossain
