Opinions of people about the
ongoing road-transportation
crisis in Dhaka city and it’s
causes and effects.
2. The purpose of this research is to find out the reactions of
the people, regarding:
The alarming and ongoing road-transportation crisis problem
Why it is happening
What are the consequences of this crisis
What are people thinking, about to give a solution to
this problem
Introduction
3. My research concerns about the opinions of people and I believe that
they will put a good judgment about the matter. Where they will
identify some major causes and possible major effects. In order to be
a part of changing this situation they will also recommend some
solutions to this matter.
There will obviously be a group who is going to criticize about the
survey. Nevertheless, I expect most of the people will feel
progressive in the sense that probably it is the best chance to
express what they feel about the growing road-transportation crisis
problem of the Dhaka city.

12. Research Findings
The findings of the research paper show that-
the most people of Dhaka city feel that they
should take seriously ongoing road-
transportation crisis .
They want to know about the reasons behind
this situation.
Our city will be nothing but benefited from this,
because in that case we will have so many
ideas and options to choose from and
eventually to create different sorts of solutions.
13. Conclusion
I believe that in the end, my hypothesis has been proved to a
convincing extent. The people of Dhaka city have always been
open to express what they feel and they continue to keep
expressing.
There is of course the concern that their judgments might not
100% correct all the time but with some modifications and
changes we can accept it, but it
is also true that their judgments about the crisis is alarming.
So we should consider their judgments seriously and try to find
a long-term solution to this crisis.
