The Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) has issued strict travel directives ahead of the upcoming Eid-ul-Fitr to ensure safe and congestion-free journeys. According to an emergency public notice released on Thursday, the movement of trucks, covered vans, and lorries will be completely prohibited on highways across the country from March 17 to 23. However, vehicles carrying essential food items, perishable goods, garments, medicines, fertilizers, and fuel will be exempt from the restriction.
The DMP announced that special monitoring will begin on March 16 at major entry and exit points of the capital to manage the rush of homebound travelers. It advised avoiding key routes such as Kuril-Abdullahpur, Gulistan-Signboard, Mirpur Road-Aminbazar, and Fulbaria-Sadarghat to reduce congestion. Inter-district buses will not be allowed to pick up or drop off passengers outside terminals or park near city entry points.
The directive also warned transport owners and workers against overcharging passengers, selling duplicate tickets, or operating unfit vehicles. Highway and traffic police teams will be deployed to curb reckless driving, intoxicated driving, and mobile phone use while driving.
