The caretaker government took a crash course to salvage the crumbling traffic in the capital by evicting illegal possessions on footpaths and roads, constructing safe bus-stops and introducing staggered school timing under a package of measures. Before confronting the problem head-on, the action plans were explained at a high-level meeting on Traffic Congestion in Dhaka City and its Solution at the Chief Adviser's Office on Thursday. This was a follow-up meeting to the July 29 meeting on traffic jam initiated by the chief adviser when he asked for identifying reasons, points of traffic jams and action of remedy. He expressed satisfaction over some good steps taken. Chairing the meeting, the chief adviser, Fakhruddin Ahmed, asked for preparing a plan of action with specific deadlines with specific persons with their positions and working accordingly. The progress has to be reported at the next follow-up meeting. On construction of busy bay, it was informed by DTCB that five bus bays would be constructed in different areas of the city by September 30 in cooperation with Dhaka City Corporation and DMP. These bays are for bus stoppage without causing problem to normal movement of vehicles on the roads. The meeting asked the education ministry to ensure staggered and flexible school timings area-wise to minimise traffic flow by September 30.
