Dhaka Metro Rail
Metro rail is one of the biggest projects in Bangladesh. It's a long-time dream of Dhaka city dwellers as the traffic condition of the city is becoming worse day by day. People living in Dhaka are wasting much of their valuable time sitting idly in vehicles. Traffic jams also yearly cause the wastage of a huge amount of money. Many people can't reach their workplace on time. So no need to say that the metro rail has become a crying need for the people of Dhaka city. It is expected that the metro rail can be partially open at the end of 2021. A 20 km metro rail line is being constructed from Dhaka's Uttara to Motijheel. But for now, the train will run from Uttara to Agargaon. The length of this route is 11.73 km. It is expected that the metro rail will carry 60,000 passengers per hour. It will have stations on 16 points of the city. As a result, people will be able to move easily from one place to another. it will also reduce the number of accidents on the road. The traffic condition will be improved as people will then less rely on private cars. The metro rail is also eco-friendly because it is electric so there will not be any honking and compared to the road-based traffic system it requires less energy. it is expected that it will not take more than 40 minutes to travel the entire route. So people will be easily able to move from one place to another. Metro rail will have many positive impacts on our social and economic life. On the other hand, a plan has been taken to run metro rail on 6 routes in Dhaka by 2030.
