Ctg. entry points
It is observed that all entry points of Chittagong town are always burdened with traffic jam. It gets worse on the eve of weekends, holidays and opening days. Recently "Colonel Hat", the entry point from rest of the country, is experiencing long jam daily. The biggest annoyance at this point is caused by town service buses, human haulers and tempos as they keep waiting on road for passengers blocking 3/4th portion of the road for long, as if they do not care anyone on earth and the long queue behind them due to their blockade does not matter much. The second point is that rickshaws come from the wrong direction to cross the main road. There is a market named "Colonel Hat" for daily essentials and people ride rickshaws to enter and exit from wrong sides and to cross the road. Another reason is using the road as parking slot by three wheeler autos, rickshaws, trucks etc.
If these factors are taken care of, there is hardly any issue to cause a jam on this entry point at "Colonel Hat".
People will be grateful to see the authorities acting on the traffic jam issue.
