Fewer battery rickshaws, clearer roads: An unusual day in Dhaka
On a city morning when Dhaka’s roads would normally be crowded with battery-run rickshaws weaving through traffic, several streets appeared noticeably clearer on Monday as the vehicles stayed largely off the roads amid a drivers’ protest.
The absence of the three-wheeled vehicles, which have become a familiar feature of Dhaka’s urban transport landscape, brought an unusual change to the streetscape.
Roads at Malibagh, Mouchak, Badda, Rampura, and adjoining areas saw fewer battery-run rickshaws, leaving more space for other vehicles and pedestrians to move.
