10. Encroachment of roads and sidewalks Street vendors, Hawkers and street front shop owners occupy above 60% of the footpaths of Dhaka City. The sidewalks are also filled up by construction materials, garbage.

11. Rail crossing Everyday we are experiencing movement of more than 75 trains to and from Dhaka. On an average, it takes five minutes to get the clearance for each crossing. Thus in one crossing, everyday the vehicles stop for six hours that is really difficult to offset.

12. Insufficient parking arrangement and road blockage Limited parking arrangement is another major cause of excessive traffic in Dhaka City. It has become a regular practice to park the car on road. Even during rush hours, people are seen loading and unloading their vehicles on a busy road. City transports also stop here and there without any valid reason. The three major bus stations, Sayedabad , Gabtoli and Mohakhali do not have sufficient capacity to accommodate all the buses operating from here.

13. What Govt. Can Do… Our government should take many hard steeps to remove the problem. 1) Government should build up highway road, over bridge, build up alternative road etc.  2) Good car parking system. 3) Hawkers who build up their business spot beside important places should be removed. 4) Old or expired vehicles should be removed from Dhaka city. ETC

14. Infrastructure development. Express highways to be built. Private participation in road development. Low budget development of junctions. Reduction of Junctions. Widening of busy roads. More public transport systems. Implement Metro Rails in Metros and big cities How to reduce Traffic Jam
