Fog disrupts ferry services on two key waterways

RAJBARI, Jan 11 (UNB): Ferry movement on two of the country's vital waterways came to a halt on Saturday morning due to heavy fog on the Padma River, disrupting transportation for several hours.
However, services resumed after a three-hour shutdown. While there was no fog overnight, a sudden fog engulfed the river basin early on Saturday. As a result, ferry services on Manikganj's Aricha and Pabna Kazirhat routes were suspended at 6:20am. The shutdown lasted until 9:35am, when ferry operations resumed, according to The Bangladesh Inland Water Transport Corporation (BIWTC).
In addition, ferry movement between Manikganj's Paturia and Rajbari's Daulatdia was also affected.
