At the Chandra Trimor bus stand on the Dhaka-Tangail Highway in Kaliakoir, Gazipur, rows of vehicles were seen waiting for passengers heading home for Eid. The scene was observed around noon on Tuesday, March 17, 2026. Drivers and passengers reported that buses were waiting to fill up before departure, with some operators citing fuel shortages as a reason for higher fares. Supervisors of several transport companies noted that passenger pressure was expected to increase from Tuesday evening through the following night.
A passenger from Thakurgaon said she was traveling early to avoid the last-minute rush, while a supervisor from Birganj Road in Dinajpur mentioned that tickets from Dhaka counters were already sold out, and roadside passengers might face double fares. Police officials, however, stated that staggered holidays at local factories would help reduce congestion and assured that security measures had been strengthened to ensure passenger safety.
Authorities expect manageable traffic flow despite the seasonal rush, with police maintaining vigilance to prevent any travel-related issues.
