Bangladesh opens its first metro line
Business Standard
|December 29, 2022
Bangladesh's capital, Dhaka, now has its first metro rail, a Japanese-funded project that aims to ease commuting in one of the most congested cities in the world.
-
A section of the over 20-kilometre urban rail project, known as Line 6, was inaugurated by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Wednesday.
The line connects the northern zone of Dhaka to a hub of government offices and hospitals in the middle for now. Eventually it will cut through the city to Motijheel in the south.
While the project is likely to bring significant changes to how people travel in Dhaka, its inauguration will also give some much-needed political mileage to Hasina's government.
