Dhaka, the bustling capital of Bangladesh, has been grappling with severe traffic congestion for years. In a bid to address this pressing issue, the Phase II of the South Asia Subregional Economic Cooperation (SASEC) project is set to make a significant impact.
The project aims to connect 16 key towns in the northwest of Dhaka, forming a crucial part of Bangladesh's South Asia Subregional Economic Corridor development. By enhancing connectivity, the SASEC Phase II project seeks to alleviate traffic pressure in the city, making daily commutes smoother for millions.
Beyond easing traffic woes, the project is also focused on enhancing road safety standards and improving the capacity for goods transportation. This not only benefits daily commuters but also bolsters the economic activities by facilitating efficient movement of goods across the region.
CGTN's Aaron Liu delves deeper into how the SASEC Project is transforming Dhaka's infrastructure, promising a more connected and safer urban environment for its residents.
