Ferry and other vessel operations on the Daulatdia-Paturia river route between Rajbari’s Daulatdia and Manikganj’s Paturia resumed at noon on Tuesday after being suspended for one hour due to stormy weather and strong winds. Authorities halted all river traffic from around 11:15 a.m. as rough currents and large waves made navigation risky. Operations were restored at 12:00 p.m. when weather conditions improved.
According to Bangladesh Inland Water Transport Corporation (BIWTC) sources, the resumption allowed vehicles that had been waiting to gradually cross the river, bringing relief to passengers. The BIWTC Daulatdia terminal’s assistant manager (commerce), Jesanul Islam Topu, confirmed that ferry services were suspended due to adverse weather and restarted once conditions became favorable.
The temporary suspension caused brief congestion at the terminals, but normal ferry movement resumed shortly after the weather stabilized.
