Mohakhali Flyover
Badal Hasib Dhanmondi Dhaka
When the construction of Mohakhali Flyover started, our hearts became filled with the hope that we would not be stuck on the road any more. The traffic problem would not hamper us any more and we waited for more than three years to have it done. When it was inaugurated last November we were thrilled, but alas! Now it has become the main reason for traffic congestion. Since it started operating, the cantonment road was closed and all the traffic came pouring into that particular road from Mohakhali to the Old Airport Road. The traffic is so terrible that no taxi is willing to take you to Dhanmondi or Mohammadpur in the evening. In the morning you will see a huge queue of vehicles from the Old Airport Road to Gulshan or Banani. This is a problem, which is deteriorating day by day. And to add insult to the injury, the police checkpoints play a vital role in the morning traffic snarl.ĘThe huge barricades narrow the roads which eventually aggravate the problem.Isn't there anything that the government can do to reduce this unbearable traffic problem? Will they let the citizens to have a less traffic problem day? I believe if the cantonment road is opened once again, the traffic problem will ease tremendously. Please let us have the advantage of having a flyover and enjoy its usage.
