Weigh station on the western side of Bangabandhu Jamuna Bridge in Sirajganj district finally resumed operation from Tuesday night. Sources said, machines at the weigh station had gone out of order about two months ago. But the authorities did not take any step to replace them for which the government was losing a huge amount of revenue. Following publication of a report in the Daily Star on April 26, Jamuna bridge authorities took the initiatives to set up a new load-cell at the weigh station.
