Dhaka Metro Rail (Template:Lang-bn), colloquially known as the Dhaka Metro (Template:Lang-bn) is an approved mass rapid transit system under construction in Dhaka, the capital and the busiest city of Bangladesh. Together with a separate light rapid transit (LRT) system, it has been long called for to ease the extreme traffic jams and congestion that occur throughout the entire city daily, one of the heaviest in the world. It is a part of the 20-year long Strategic Transport Plan (STP) outlined by the Dhaka Transport Coordination Authority (DTCA), a governmental agency.[6] As of 2022, the metro rail system consists of one line referred to as the MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) Line-6, with other metro rail lines set to be added in the future.

History

In an effort to implement Dhaka's 20-year long Strategic Transport Plan (STP), the Bangladeshi government invited the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) to conduct a primary survey and feasibility study on the transport system of Dhaka in 2009–2010. In 2012, the Government's Executive Committee of National Economic Council (ECNEC) approved the project. A loan agreement between the Bangladeshi government and JICA was signed in January 2013.

Dhaka Mass Transit Company Ltd. (DMTC), the agency responsible for the implementation of the first metro line (MRT Line-6) was formed in January 2013. The General Consultant (GC), namely the NKDM Association, commenced work beginning in February 2014. In June 2013, Dhaka Mass Transit Company Limited (DMTC) was established by the Government to implement the Metro Rail Lines across the city.[7]

MRT Line-6

Construction

The deal for construction of the MRT Line-6, costing US$2.8 billion, was signed by the Government of Bangladesh with the Japan International Cooperation Agency on 20 February 2013.[8] Construction began on 26 June 2016 with an inauguration ceremony presided over by the reigning prime minister Sheikh Hasina.[9] The civil work has been done by the Italian-Thai Development Public Company Ltd. and China's Sinohydro Corporation Ltd. JV and a Tokyo-based construction company developed the depot's land.[10][11]

The project has been divided into eight packages.

  1. Package-1 (Depot area land development)
  2. Package-2 (Depot area completion)
  3. Package-3, Package-4 (Uttara North-Agaragon 11.73 km (7.29 mi) viaduct and 9 stations)
  4. Package-5 (Agaragon-Kawran Bazar 3.195 km (1.985 mi) viaduct and 3 stations construction work)
  5. Package-6 (Kawran Bazar-Motirjheel 4.922 km (3.058 mi) viaduct and 3 stations construction work)
  6. Package-7 (Electrical and mechanical system)
  7. Package-8 (Rolling stock and depot equipment collection)[12]

Delays

Its launch was delayed several times. In 2010, it was expected that this rail project's first phase could be completed as early as 2013. It was not completed by 2013.[13] During 2014-2018, it was expected this rail project will be completed in 2019.[14][15] But, unfortunately, the project got delayed again. In 2018, it was expected that the second phase would be complete by December 2020.[15]Then, it was delayed to December 2021.[16] Again, it was delayed to December 2022.[17] The major reason for the delay from 2020 to 2022 was the COVID-19 pandemic.[18]

Cost and length changes

Originally, the project cost was Tk 21,985 crore but it was later increased by Tk 11,487 to Tk 33,472 crore. The first route, originally projected to start from Uttara, a northern suburb of Dhaka, to Sayedabad, in the south of the capital,[19] was eventually extended north to Uttara and truncated south to Motijheel.[20] The original length which was 20.10 km (12.49 mi) has been increased by 1.16 to 21.26 km (13.21 mi). It was planned to have 16 stations originally but it has been increased to 17 stations.[21]

Misconceptions

It was said to be 27 km (17 mi) underground metro rail project. But, later it was confirmed that it was an elevated and underground metro rail project.[13] In 2014, it was said to have 56 trains running through the metro system.[14] But, it has been confirmed that the number of vehicles that will run through MRT Line-6 will be 24.[15] It was planned to have six lines.

Trial runs

MRT Line-6's train made its longest trail run on 12 December 2021. The train ran for 11.3 km (7.0 mi). It ran at 100km/h for 9 km (5.6 mi) and ran at 15–20 km (9.3–12.4 mi) for the rest.

Overview

Line-6 consists of 16 elevated stations each of 180m long and 20.1 km (12.5 mi) of electricity-powered light rail tracks. All of Line-6, save for the depot, and some of its accompanying LRT, will be elevated above current roads primarily above road medians to allow traffic flow underneath, with stations also elevated. Dhaka Metro is projected to serve more than 60,000 passengers per hour by 2022, with wait times of approximately 4 minutes.[22] The entire route will be able to be travelled in less than 40 minutes at a speed of 100 km/h (62 mph), and is expected to drastically reduce the number of private cars on Dhaka's streets as well as their potentially 7-hour-long standstills.[23][24] The system plans to use magnetic contactless Integrated Circuit Ticketing, commonly known as smart cards.[6] Platform screen door (PSD) barriers used at the platform level will increase safety and increase efficiency.[6] Trains of six spacious air-conditioned cars will arrive every four minutes going each way at each of the 16 stations.[24] The project is being managed by the Communications Ministry's Dhaka Transport Co-ordination Authority, and a consortium of foreign as well as Bangladeshi firms known as NKDM Association is acting as General Consultant (GC). NKDM Association consists of: Nippon Koei Japan and Development Design Consultants (local consultant - Bangladesh).
