Dhaka Metro Rail Line-6 will have Beautiful Stations


The metro rail of Dhaka is being visible on the streets of the city. Spans are building on top of the pillars. One of the important infrastructures of the Metro Rail project is the stations. On the one hand, the construction of the metro rail line is ongoing and on the other hand, the ongoing work of the steel set of the ultra luxurious stations which are constructing in Japan.

The steel set of MRT stations from Japan will be placed on top of the pillars. The steel station set will arrive at Dhaka before the metro rail coach arrival from Japan.

In the MRT Line-6 there will be total 16 stations which are Uttara (North), Uttara (Center), Uttara (South), Pallabi, Mirpur-11, Mirpur-10, Kazipara, Taltola, Agargaon (IDB), Bijoy Sarani, Farmgate, Sonargaon (Karwan bazar), National Museum (Shahbagh), Doyel Chattar (DU), National Stadium (Paltan) and Bangladesh Bank (Motijheel). The metro rail route will be on the middle of the road. The station will be more than two-storey high and the length will be 180 meters. Ticket purchase and automatic entrance facilities for the passengers from both sides will be available.

History of Bangladesh's Liberation War, History and Culture of the Bengali nation and Islamic culture will be displayed on the stations. Out of 16, three Iconic stations will be built and the rest will be general. Iconic stations are Uttara South, Bijoy Sarani and Motijheel. These stations will be built in such a way that it will be understood that it is the MRT station in Bangladesh. The weather and geographical info of the country will also be visible at the stations. Every MRT station will be modern and luxurious.




The attractive aspect of the station is the platform roof. Highly vividly white-colored geometric arcade roofs can be separated by two straight lines. There will be transparent glass in some places, so that the sunlight can enter and spread on both sides of the platform.

The British company John McAslan Plus Partners (JMPI) has designed 16 stations of the Metro Rail project together with Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET).

The stations will be sophisticated and luxurious. Our country's history, Islamic and other cultures will be adorned on the stations. Anyone visiting abroad can understand that these are the cultural and heritage of Bangladesh. Bangladesh is a country of religious harmony. These things will also be seen on the stations.

Along with the eyesight, functional direction has been given more prominence. How people can reach their destinations from these stations by easily avoiding congestion. Everything is being done properly for the convenience of people to travel through the MRT routes.

Regarding the capacity of the people in the stations, the transport expert said, there will be 16 stations in the range to transport 60 thousand passengers per hour. The max speed will be 100 kilometers per hour. But stations are located within small distances, so 100 kilometers per hour speed may not be possible in such shorter distance.

In most places, the work of stations for Dhaka Mass Rapid Transit Development Project (METRO RAIL) is visible from Uttara Diabari, Mirpur, Shewrapara and Agargaon. Spans for this mega project are visible on the pillars. But in many places there is no span on the pillar. Gap has been kept in these places, such as at Mirpur-10. Where there is a pillar construction gate, the station has been planned for construction. There are also gaps in Uttara (North), Uttara (Center), Uttara (South), Pallabi, Mirpur 11, Kazipara, Taltala and Agargaon to build stations.

Although the pillar was constructed in the middle of road, but columns for stations has constructed on both sides of the road. There are three pillars in the middle of the column on the two sides. In order to construct the station, Pillar work has been completed in Uttara (North), Uttara (Center) and Uttara (South). Steel stations will be installed at these places which are constructing in Japan. These set will bring here and put on top of the pillars. However, the construction of the pillar of the station is yet to be completed in Pallabi, Mirpur-10, Mirpur 11, Kazipara, Taltola and Agargaon.




The platform on both sides of the station will have strong glass for safety. The journey to the metro rail station will ensure the smooth movement with elevators (moving stairs). The metro station will be on top of the head, peoples will walk down the footpath and vehicles will move by the road.

Overall, the construction work of the metro rail is going on fast. The construction of the station is getting faster. Only the station will be constructed where there is a gap. After the completion of the pillar construction work, the ready-made steel station from Japan will come and will just set up on top of the pillars.
