Buses to run under unified system in Dhaka
All buses in Dhaka will now be operated under a single, unified system, according to a post of the Chief Adviser on his verified Facebook page.
Companies will be required to operate only on prescribed routes and make stops at designated points, it said.
The statement added, ”Dhaka’s bus system has long operated without proper regulation, creating chaos for commuters. Buses run on unplanned routes, causing severe traffic jams, frequent accidents, fare manipulation, and unsafe travel conditions. While younger and able-bodied passengers may cope, women, children, and the elderly often struggle to board amid the disorder.”
The changes are expected to make bus travel easier, faster, and more reliable for millions of commuters, reducing the need to fight for space or endure unfair fares while improving overall road safety and traffic flow across Dhaka.
