Dense fog causes traffic jam on Bangabandhu Bridge

Due to dense fog, the authorities suspended vehicular movement on the Bangabandhu Bridge from early morning on Thursday.

The traffic movement on the bridge remained halted from early today.

The traffic control room said toll collection was stopped to prevent accidents on the bridge as due to heavy fog visibility dropped below 40 metres.

Shafiqul Islam, officer-in-charge (OC) of Bangabandhu Bridge East Police Station, hoped that the vehicular movement will resume once the fog disappears.
