Severe Traffic Congestion and Waterlogging on Dhaka-Tangail and Dhaka-Mymensingh Highways
Heavy rainfall starting May 26, 2026, caused significant travel disruptions for Eid-ul-Adha homebound passengers in Gazipur. Waterlogging in the Bhogra area and massive traffic congestion on the Dhaka-Tangail highway (including areas like Chandra, Safipur, and Polli Bidyut) and the Dhaka-Mymensingh highway, left thousands of travelers stranded for over 10 hours.
