Sylhet, April 13 -- Around 250 kilometres of highways and rural roads in Beanibazar upazila of Sylhet have fallen into disrepair, causing severe hardship for commuters.

The roads riddled with potholes and damaged surfaces, have made vehicular movement slow and risky, often triggering long tailbacks.

Commuters say travel time has increased significantly.

Locals alleged that it now takes nearly twice as long as before to reach Beanibazar municipal town due to the poor condition of the roads.

Officials concerned attribute the worsening situation to substandard construction, lack of regular maintenance and the movement of overloaded vehicles.
