Abstract
Gulshan-Banani-HatirJheel Lake area is the busiest region within the capital city of Bangladesh and is under the Dhaka North City Corporation. Hatirjheel lake area has been transformed into transportation hub to minimize traffic congestion. The area was constructed under Bangladesh Army and Śpecial Works Organization’ (SWO). Recently, the Government of the Peoples Republic of Bangladesh has taken up a project for the development of Gulshan-Banani Lake, as it will be linked with Hatirjheel project widening facilities for the city dwellers. These lake areas remain almost unused throughout the year. There are housings on the both sides of these lakes and a slum near the Banani Lake. At present road transport is the only mode of transport for accessing with other parts of the Dhaka city and travellers face severe traffic jam during working hours. A study has been carried out by one of the present author about the possibility to build a waterways network for passengers transport through these lakes. Present study aims at the development of a suitable design of boat for the Gulshan-Banani-HatirJheel Lake.
