Dhaka: Around 60‐kilometer long tailback was created on Dhaka‐Tangail and Dhaka‐Mymensingh Highways early Wednesday, inflicting immense sufferings on thousands of passengers.

Highway police sources said vehicular movement on Dhaka‐Tangail and Dhaka‐Mymensingh Highways came to a halt due to numerous numbers of potholes, irregular car parking, and construction work on four‐lane Dhaka‐Tangail Highway.

As a result, traffic was disrupted on the highway from Gazipura to Pakulla in Tangail.
