20km tailback on Dhaka-Ctg highway
A road accident in Comilla has created a 20-kilometre long tailback on the Dhaka-Chittagong highway, causing immense sufferings to the commuters.
The length of highway from Comilla cantonment to Harikhola area of Chandina upazila was seen packed with snarling traffic, reports a correspondent from Comilla.
The road jammed up after a truck turned turtle on the highway in the cantonment area around 7:00am.
Though the dilapidated truck was removed, the tailback persists, said Md Arshad, sergeant of Elliotganj Highway Police in Daudkandi upazila.
Police were trying their best to ensure smooth traffic on the highway, he told the correspondent around 11:00am.
Hundreds of passengers remained stuck on Dhaka-Chittagong highway for hours on Saturday due to a 27-kilometre tailback caused by a similar road accident in Daudkandi upazila of the district.
