Cargo movement from Chattogram port has declined sharply as fewer trucks, covered vans, and prime movers were seen operating on the streets. Additionally, the goods train service from the port to Dhaka and other parts of the country remained dysfunctional, causing further hindrances to the transportation of export-import goods, including essential items.

More than 10,000 vehicles usually enter the port for goods transport, but this number has drastically reduced to below 1,000. Container deliveries at the port also plummeted to 329 TEUs, starkly contrasting the normal rate of 4,000 to 4,500 containers per day.
