Noise pollution making residential areas unlivable
The blaring noise of horns in the Uttara residential area, particularly from the airport intersection to Abdullahpur, makes it impossible for us to sleep at night or for our children to study during daytime. Given that this area has a 24-hour stream of traffic on the move, there is no rational reason to honk in the residential lanes. But long route buses in particular continue to create a lot of unnecessary noise nonetheless.
The Traffic Department must make it mandatory for vehicles to follow specific lanes, and more importantly refrain from honking in residential areas. It is our earnest request to the Traffic Division and the DMP to look into the matter immediately.
