In most situations, vehicles have to wait when a train approaches and let it pass by. But on Kalurghat bridge in Chattogram city, it is the train that often has to wait until the traffic is cleared on the narrow bridge constructed in 1930. People of the region have long been demanding a new bridge to ease their commuting woes. The photo was taken last week. Photo: Rajib Raihan
