Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) has announced temporary traffic control measures in parts of Sher-e-Bangla Nagar on Thursday, March 12, 2026, to manage vehicle movement during the first session of the National Parliament. The advisory, signed by Deputy Police Commissioner Muhammad Talebur Rahman, urges city residents to use alternative routes to avoid congestion near the parliament area.

According to the DMP notice, the arrival and departure of the President, Prime Minister, Members of Parliament, foreign diplomats, political leaders, and other dignitaries are expected to increase traffic pressure around Urojahaj Mor, Khejurbagan, Manik Mia Avenue, Asad Gate, and July Smriti Jadughar crossings. To ease movement, diversions will be in effect from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. on several routes.

The DMP has requested drivers to strictly follow the specified directions and cooperate with traffic authorities to prevent congestion during the restricted hours.
