On the first day of the Eid holiday, Shimuliaghat of Munshiganj was flooded with motorcycles. Every ferry that leaves Shimulia for Majhikandi at 6 am on Wednesdays has this scene.
Hundreds of motorcycles are waiting to cross the bridge at a separate booth set up next to the Bangabandhu Bridge toll plaza. Meanwhile, private cars are seen more than buses on the highway. Among them, the number of motorcycles is high.
Bangladesh Inland Water Transport Corporation (BIWTC) Shimuliaghat manager, Jamal Hossain said that motorcycles are being crossed by two ferries on the Shimulia-Majhikandi route since Wednesday morning. The pressure is high today as the Eid holiday has started.
