Bangladesh is an under developing country. She is trying her level best to develop her infrastructure and super structure. Road communication is the intra-structure in Bangladesh that is not in a satisfactory condition. The modern economy is dependent on the upliftment of road communication for its smooth exposure. The total conditions of road communication in Bangladesh are a common phenomenon. This is because of the poor condition of our roads and streets.
There are metalled and unmetalled roads in Bangladesh. The metalled roads are there in the cities and in the town. Most of the metalled roads have covered the inter-district communication of the country. The unmetalled roads are there in the rural areas or in the hilly regions. During the rainy season the condition of the unmetalled roads becomes deplorable because they become muddy and people feel troubled to move on them.
The inter-district road communication in Bangladesh is, to some extents, good. But on many places there are small holes that cause severe accidents. The bus drivers can carry passengers from one district to another playing along the inter-district roads. The trucks, private cars and different kinds of auto miles follow these roads to go from one district to another.
There are some highways in Bangladesh that are superior to other ways in quality. The Dhaka-Chittagong highway deserves the credit of being fine and smooth. There are some productive bridges in Bangladesh that are playing vital role in road communication. Among them the JamunaMultifariousBridge linking the north with south, the China- Bangladesh Friendship Bride the liking are important and worth-mentionable. There are many culverts in Bangladesh especially in the regional areas that are helping a lot in road communication sector.
Last of all, we can say that road communication in Bangladesh must be upgraded fpr our betterment. By-pass roads are required to be completed to make the highways tree from vehicle jam. The poor structure of the roads needs to be remodeled so that drivers can drive modern vehicles smoothly. Then we can have a standard road communication in Bangladesh.
