Bangladesh First Express “Dhaka Elevated Expressway”.
Dhaka Elevated Expressway is Bangladesh's first elevated expressway project,[1] which will connect the Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport with Kutubkhali via Kawla, Kuril, Banani, Mohakhali, Tejgaon, Moghbazar, Kamalapur, Sayedabad and Jatrabari of Dhaka.[2][3] It is one of the largest infrastructure projects taken up by the incumbent government to ease traffic congestion in the capital.[4] It will be 19.73 km (64,700 ft) long (46.73 km with the connecting ramps)[5] and will cost around ৳122 billion (US$1.1 billion).[3] On September 2, 2023, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina ceremoniously opened the Airport-Farmgate section of the Dhaka Elevated Expressway, with her motorcade covering the toll of Tk 2,000 for 25 vehicles.[6] Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina inaugurated the 11.5 km Airport-Farmgate section of the 19.73 km Dhaka Elevated Expressway, a pioneering infrastructure project in Bangladesh. This development holds great promise for alleviating traffic congestion and shortening commuting times in the capital city. Commuters were thrilled to be able to cover the distance between Kawla and Farmgate in just 10 minutes, with speeds reaching up to 60 km per hour.[7]
