Tangail: Long tailbacks have been created at several points on Dhaka-Tangail Highway from Chandra of Gazipur to Elenga in Tangail district due to the dilapidated conditions of the highway triggered by heavy torrential rainfall of the last couple of days.

A good number of potholes and cracks have been developed at various points of the busy highway, hindering the hundreds of vehicles to move smoothly, said Gorai Highway Police Station in-charge Kalilur Rahman Patwari.

As a result, severe tailbacks have been created since the morning, creating untold sufferings to the Dhaka and northern districts-bound passengers, he added.
