The government has announced that all buses in Dhaka will now run under a single, unified management system. Companies must operate only on designated routes and stops, according to the Press Wing. Currently, Dhaka’s chaotic and unregulated bus services cause daily suffering—traffic jams, accidents, fare scams, and overcrowding. Passengers, especially women, children, and the elderly, face immense hardship. Authorities estimate traffic mismanagement causes losses of Tk 37,000 crore annually and wastes 3.2 million work hours every day. Officials say the new system will bring order to bus routes, reduce fare manipulation, and help ease chronic congestion in the capital.
