摘要：

Moving from one place to another has become quite difficult in Dhaka, Bangladesh. People often have to lose hours sitting in the traffic jam. Their movements also cost a lot of money. Again, there is safety concern in public transports and roads. Hence, poor people find it almost impossible to move in Dhaka. In this paper, we are proposing a solution to help these people. We have built an app to connect people who can help and who needs help. Through two-month long user study, we find out the impact our solution has on the users' movement in the city.
