Cabbies and vendors main cause of traffic congestion

Busy: Jalan U- Thant, near the Bangladesh High Commission, is congested with vehicles.

GETTING in and out of their houses has become a chore for residents living near several embassies and high commissions as the roads are often blocked by taxis and mobile hawkers.

They are especially irked by the taxi drivers “camped” outside their gates to wait for passengers.
