The government yesterday decided to resume public transport services in 11 cities from today, barely a couple of days after it imposed the weeklong restrictions to curb the spread of Covid-19. The services will be available in the areas from 6:00am to 6:00pm every day until further notice, Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader said at a virtual press conference. The cities are Dhaka, Chattogram, Narayanganj, Khulna, Rajshahi, Barishal, Sylhet, Rangpur, Gazipur, Cumilla and Mymensingh, according to a circular issued by Bangladesh Road Transport Authority (BRTA). Though Quader said they took the decision, considering people's sufferings, sources in the transport sector said the move was made following demands from transport leaders.
