DMP notifies traffic control measures in around city during Eid

The Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) has announced a raft of measures to control traffic in and around the capital to ensure smooth vehicular movement during Eid-ul-Fitr.

In a notice issued on Sunday, the DMP noted that over 10 million people typically leave Dhaka for the holidays, while around 3 million enter the city from other areas.

"To facilitate a smooth and hassle-free journey for homebound travellers, the DMP's Traffic Division has implemented various initiatives."

In a meeting chaired by the Road Transport Adviser on March 9, it was decided that trucks, covered vans, and lorries would be banned from using highways between March 25 to 28 and for three days after Eid.

Authorities also decided to make the Abdullahpur-Dhour-Ashulia road one-way for outbound traffic, while the Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) lane will be designated exclusively to vehicles leaving the capital.

The DMP also announced that from March 25 until Eid night, traffic restrictions would be in place on several key roads. On the Dhaka-Ashulia Highway, vehicles exiting Dhaka will use the Abdullahpur-Kamarpara-Dhour Bridge road as a one-way route. Vehicles entering Dhaka via Ashulia-Dhour-Kamarpara-Abdullahpur must use the Mirpur Beribadh road via Ashulia-Dhour-Panchabati.
