Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) has requested commuters to avoid the route from Khilkhet through Uttara to Gazipur on Tuesday, due to a long tailback.
Uttara Traffic Department of DMP issued an alert, saying that heavy rains induced by Cyclone Sitrang have caused waterlogging at different points in Gazipur on Dhaka-Mymensingh road.
Due to the big holes in the road and waterlogging, vehicle movement from Khilkhet through Uttara to Mohakhali has been seriously disrupted, it said.
In this situation, commuters are requested to not use this route unless urgent.
