In Bangladesh's capital city - Dhaka -  the government have come up with a rather unusual way of dealing with their massive traffic problem.

They've decided that every day - all the shops and businesses in one part of the city will have to close. The city will be divided into seven zones and each zone will have to take its turn to shut up shop.

They hope that by doing this  way less people will use the roads. But lots of people think the plan is a recipe for disaster. They reckon the parts of the city that aren't closed will get even busier because they'll have to absorb even more people. But for some shop workers who work seven days a week at the moment - it's a welcome break.

Do you think it's a good idea? Do you know other solutions?
