Physical Infrastructure

Following are the physical development constraints for preparing the master plan for Bakerganj Pourashava:

– The Pourashava is located in a disaster prone area, its geographical location itself a constraint to develop the infrastructure.

– Low land elevation and the distribution of water bodies make it difficult to provide utility services, road network and well-investment to encourage industrial development.

– Internal roads are being developed in an unplanned way and most of the access roads are katcha and narrow. Moreover, absence of traffic management system causes lack of planning in transport network development. This situation hinders economic development also the potentiality of physical development of the Pourashava.

– Lack of maintenance and lack of urban facilities create negative impact on physical development.

– Gas supply and sewerage disposal facilities are absent in the Pourashava including inadequate electricity supply. These are the major hindrances in economic and physical development.

– Lack of drainage network makes it difficult to drain out the flood and rain water. As a result, water-logging problem is common in the planning area.
