Dhaka is resuming its usual hustle, with long vehicle lines and crowded public transport once again plaguing the capital. The rainy weather has only intensified the situation.
On Monday, traffic congestion and pedestrian crowding significantly increased across various parts of Dhaka.
What used to be a 15-minute journey now takes 45 minutes. Many residents are missing the convenience of the Metrorail, though some find solace in the city’s return to normalcy.
Transport drivers and related workers are worried, as increased traffic jams could slow their earnings. Traffic officials noted that the surge in vehicle numbers is due to offices and courts reopening after educational institutions.
Authorities are seen working diligently to alleviate the congestion and improve the daily commute for citizens.
Despite the current challenges, people hope for a gradual return to normalcy, wishing for peace and resolution to the city’s ongoing issues.
