Drivers block Dhaka-Maowa link road
Autorickshaw and van drivers blocked south edge of Buriganga Bridge-2 on Dhaka-Maowa link road yesterday protesting collection of extra toll from them.
Sources said the drivers put up barricade on the road at 9:00am halting vehicular movement on the road and creating a long tailback.
Angry drivers damaged some passenger buses during the block.
Drivers alleged that the authority is realising extra toll from Friday.
But the authority denied the allegation of the drivers and said that they have collected government fixed toll from the drivers.
Additional RAB and police were deployed in the area to avert any untoward situation.
Vehicular movement did not resume till 2:00pm.
