Chankharpul crossing needs footbridge
For passersby, Chankharpul intersection is a dangerous point. Four busy roads, directing to Dhaka University, Mayor Hanif Flyover, Dhaka Medical College and Old Dhaka, converge toward the intersection, which almost always remains packed with vehicles, but there is no footbridge for passersby.
For women, children and elderly people, the plight is even worse. Already, a number of accidents have taken place in this intersection, and more may occur in the future unless the authorities take steps to build a footbridge.
