Cracks and pot holes have been developed at many points of the roads. After slight rainfall many roads go under water. Rain water remains stagnant on roads causing untold suffering to the pedestrians as well as vehicular traffic. Moreover the roadside ditches remain filled with garbages. Traffic jam is a common feature in the town.
Hawkers occupy foot-paths of the main roads and rickshaw stands here and there.
It makes obstacles in the main road. Mymensingh is known as town of rickshaws. According to municipal authorities, there are 8700 authorised rickshaws in the town. But about 15,000 rickshaws are plying in the town. The haphazard parking of buses coming from Netrokona, Kishoreganj, Sherpur, Jamalpur, Haluaghat Muktagachha, Phulpur, Phulbaria and Gouripur through this town cause traffic jam.
