Depertment of Urban and Reginal Planning (URP) dept. of BUET and WBB Trust jointly organized a View Exchange Meeting on Importance of Walking & Cycling on 30^th May 2011 at National Press Club. Most of trips are made on foot but so many obstructions on the walk way and pedestrians are most vulnerable group in Dhaka. Also cycling is very difficult. We need appropriate policy and planning to provide adequate facility for walking and cycling for good health and reduce fuel consumption, pollution and congestion.
