Unauthorized parking on busy roads and footpaths in Dhaka, especially in areas like Karwan Bazar and New Eskaton Road, is causing severe traffic jams and public inconvenience. Despite policies by the Dhaka Transport Coordination Authority, enforcement remains weak. Vehicles, including government ones, are often parked illegally, blocking traffic and pedestrian movement. Experts blame poor governance and lack of strict law enforcement. City corporations conduct eviction drives, but encroachments frequently return, making sustainable solutions urgently needed to ease the city’s traffic woes.

Illegal Parking on Busy Roads and Footpaths Worsens Traffic Congestion in the Capital

Karwan Bazar is one of the busiest areas in the capital city, home to numerous government and private offices. Around these buildings, illegal parking has become widespread. Vehicles are almost always parked in front of the WASA building and under the metro station. Additionally, there is unauthorized parking on the opposite side of Sonargaon. This not only causes traffic jams but also increases citizens’ hardships.
