Two container-transport trucks block a large portion of the Airport Road while making a right turn, creating a tailback on both sides of the road in the port city's Salt Gola crossing area. This has become a regular phenomenon since some container depots were set up in the area. As a result, thousands, including workers, patients and airport goers, who use the road on a regular basis, continue to bear the brunt. According to locals, these trucks are also parked on the roadsides, worsening the traffic situation further. The photo was taken on Thursday. Photo: Prabir Das
