Build over-bridges to facilitate road-crossing
Saturday, 28 March 2009
Traffic jam is a common scene in Dhaka city. Everyday it kills our valuable time. All city dwellers are victims of jam. It is really bothering and disturbing. We can not do our work timely. This jam is not a new phenomenon. It is here since long.
Dhaka City Corporation (DCC) built many over-bridges in various important places of the city to check this jam. But we don't use over-bridges properly. Many people want to cross the roads walking across them. However, most of us try to use over-bridge.
We see many places where there are no over-bridges. At present, there are many places where over-bridges are a must. At Motijheel Shapla chattar, Shahbabh mor, Karwan Bazar, Gulistan, Shanir Akhra and at other important places, there are no over-bridges. We face problem crossing the roads at these points. So our request to the DCC authority is: please build over-bridges. We want to use over-bridges.
