The width of this road in Jatrabari has been reduced to less than half as road development work closes three lanes. Locals say the work has been going on for months. The usable lanes have gridlocks all day and the bustling wholesale kitchen market there aggravates the situation. The photo was taken around 8:00am yesterday. Photo: Anisur Rahman
A series of political programmes led to gridlocks around the capital yesterday. While some had to wait for hours to reach their destinations, many had to resort to walking. The photo was taken in the capital’s Farmgate area where a long tailback was seen in the afternoon. Photo: Prabir Das
Scrap materials from ships, bought by local traders from shipbreaking yards for reselling, occupy the footpath, making it impossible for pedestrians to use them. Meanwhile, illegally parked pick-up vans on the road further add to the menace. The photo was taken in the capital’s Dholaipar area yesterday. Photo: Anisur Rahman
