Traffic jam near PMO
Every evening there's a permanent traffic jam starting from Mohakhali Flyover to the Prime Minister's Office. The Taka 200 crore flyover is supposed to reduce traffic congestion. It's even more unfortunate that the jam lasts for half an hour during 6:00 to 9:00pm on every working day. Therefore, the journey from Mohakhali to Farm Gate takes almost an hour. Usually, a bus can reach farm Gate in 10 minutes in a moderate traffic jam. People now waste their valuable time, energy and money on the road.
Immediate steps are required to lessen this jam in front of the most prestigious Office of the People's Republic of Bangladesh.
