Chittagong Road Bus Counter, Dhaka.
| Greetings, love & respect to all of my steemian friends. |

I am @saifuddinmahmud from Bangladesh. There is an amazing learning challenge organised by @solaymann. The theme of the challenge is Steemit Challenge Season 28 Week3 - Transport station. I am going to share my experience. I hope everyone like my post.
Today I am going to review a bus counter. This counter is called Chittagong Road Counter. It is located in Dhaka district of Bangladesh. This is an important counter on Dhaka-Narayanganj Highway. Bus counters are of two types. One is the main counter and the other is the sub-counter. The counter I am going to write about is a sub-counter.
From this counter, buses ply to the districts of the entire South Bengal region of Bangladesh. Most of the tourist attractions of Bangladesh are located in the southern part of Bangladesh. Therefore, this counter is one of the busiest counters. There are about 15-20 small counters here.
After coming to the counter, you have to collect tickets. After coming to the counter, tickets are sold through a POS machine. In this machine, you are given four seats to sit in. After paying the price, a ticket is printed through this machine.
After paying the bus fare, a single printed paper is issued which is considered as a ticket. There are 2 copies here, one for the passenger and the other for the bus authority. Your necessary information is written on this slip. For example - the name of your bus, seat number, fare amount, departure time, etc.
| Every kilometre bus rent | 2.50 Taka | 0.27 steem |

| 100 kilometres | 250 Taka | 25 steem |
Buses usually stop in front of this counter. Passengers board the bus from here. Since these are sub-counters, the cars do not wait for long. As soon as the car stops here, the national bus gets on. The buses wait for a maximum of 1 minute at these counters.
For example, there is a district bus counter here where district direct buses stop and national buses get on and off. Apart from this, local buses stop here where people get on and off.

Sitting bench
There are small benches at the counter to wait for the bus. Passengers sit here and wait for the bus.
The counters have good electricity supply. There are electric fans here. When the passengers wait here, they do not suffer from excessive heat, so fans are arranged.
There are lights for the auxiliary lighting system. Especially when it is dark at night, auxiliary lighting is needed. That is why this lighting facility has been provided.
While traveling in a bus, light food is usually needed more than heavy food. For this reason, there are small shops at the counters. There is a shop at the counter where food items like tea, water, cakes, biscuits, juice etc. are available.
