How highways are connected
The fantastic solution of the Kanchpur chaos is surely the product of the fertile brains of our able engineers. The long loops will cost lot of money and acquisition of land. I am not an engineer but I have seen in western countries how highways are connected.
It is very simple, scientific and takes very little space. Let me tell you how to solve the Kanchpur riddle. For Sylhet traffic going to Dhaka, cross Dhaka-Chittagong highway through a tunnel, then make an anti-clockwise round turn and join the left lane towards Dhaka.
Similarly for Chittagong traffic going to Sylhet, just after passing the point where Sylhet road hits the highway, make an exit from the left lane, take an anti-clockwise round turn, pass through a tunnel under Dhaka-Chittagong highway and join the left lane towards Sylhet. This is the way highways are connected through out the world.
