Need for extended metro rail hours

July 15, 2024 00:00:00


The metro rail service in Dhaka is hailed as the most efficient, fastest, and reliable mode of transport for its residents. It benefits millions of passengers. A megacity with a population exceeding 20 million and projected to grow further due to its expanding economy, underscores the necessity of such infrastructure.

Metro Rail has become integral to our daily lives. Currently, the last train departs from Motijheel around 9:40 pm. Given Dhaka's bustling nature, we strongly urge the DMTCL authorities to extend the Metro Rail services until 11 pm. This extension would ensure that passengers have a safe and dependable mode of travel even at late hours.
