Ferry services on  Chandpur -Shariatpur route resumed on Monday morning after eight hours of suspension due to dense fog.

“Ferry services were suspended at 12 am on Sunday due to heavy fog considering the safety of the passengers,” Bangladesh Inland Water Transport Corporation (BIWTC) ferry ghat manager Faisal Alam said.

Seven ferries are now operating on Chandpur-Shariatpur-Narsinghpur route. 

Due to the suspension of ferry services, small and large vehicles got stranded on both sides of the river, reports UNB.
