Dhaka traffic woes grow as expressway, metro rail, roads closed
Traffic in Dhaka is still affected by road closures and the lack of public transportation.
Despite moderate traffic in general, commuters are still having difficulty getting to their jobs, with the closure of the metro rail and elevated expressway on Thursday.
The metro rail and the elevated expressway have been shut down due to the damage caused during the recent clashes between protesters and law enforcement agencies over the last few days. As a result, pressures on city streets have increased, causing intense traffic congestion on major roads.
