Tracking Traffic Issues | Dhaka City

Summery: According to the World Population Statistics  the current population [ September, 2013 ] of the city of Dhaka, Bangladesh is estimated to be about [7,001,000 ] which is about equal to the last record of the population. Dhaka is actually the capital city of Bangladesh and is considered to be one of the major cities of all of South Asia. The city is considered the largest in all of Bangladesh and the overall metropolitan area is the 9th largest city in the entire world. Based on the total land area and the total population of the city, the population density of Dhaka is about 50,001 people per square mile.

Dhaka city’s traffic congestion problem has assumed  alarming proportions. A drive from Kamalapur to Mirpur or Uttara to New Market is a painful experience. The journey from home to office or business center takes away vital hours from work.The capital’s messy traffic management system is manually handling around 3,000 traffic polices round the clock.

As a photojournalist work on the road in Dhaka City, tracking traffic issues check back Dhaka City Traffic pages with your valuable commentary and sharing experience which we every day suffer and anticipating a good solution as a citizen of Dhaka.

During our long term courses I learned a lot, especially in a new media concept to apply my professional point of view, like Cross-Media Communication experiences that happen across multiple media, like  the Internet, web, video, film, broadcast and cable TV, mobile devices, DVD, print, and radio. Yes, it’s a long experience journey for wondering wisdom. Our final project is highly appreciated from the Academics of BRAC & PATHSHALA.
