Traffic on Daulatdia-Paturia ferry route has resumed after nearly seven hours of halt because of dense fog.
Bangladesh Inland Water Transport Authority (BIWTA) Paturia pier manager Biddut Kumar told that ferry services resumed around 9am on Sunday.
"We stopped the services after a ferry (Khan Jahan Ali) got stranded in mid-river around 2am on Sunday due to poor visibility caused by heavy fog," he said.
During the halt, four ferries were stranded in Daulatdia and three in Paturia, creating a huge jam, Kumar said.
Gridlocks were seen on both sides due to traffic disruption overnight.
