A severe traffic jam developed on the Dhaka-bound lane of the Dhaka-Chattogram highway in Gazaria, Munshiganj, on Monday night, causing significant suffering for passengers and drivers. The congestion began after midnight when repair work started on the Langalbandh Bridge in Sonargaon, Narayanganj. The slowdown on the bridge quickly affected the entire highway, extending the jam into the Gazaria section.
Truck driver Mohan Mia reported being stuck in traffic since crossing the Daudkandi Bridge around 3 a.m., while private car driver Ujjal Pradhan said about 13 kilometers of the Dhaka-bound lane in Gazaria had become nearly immobile. He noted that it took over two and a half hours to cross the Meghna Bridge, a journey that normally takes less than ten minutes.
Highway police officer Shawkat Hossain confirmed that the congestion was caused by the ongoing repair work on the damaged Langalbandh Bridge and said police were working continuously to ease the situation.
