The Dhaka Metro Rail (Bengali: ঢাকা মেট্রোরেল, romanised: dhaka metrorel), colloquially known as the Dhaka Metro (Bengali: ঢাকা মেট্রো, romanised: dhaka metro), is a mass rapid transit serving Dhaka, the capital city of Bangladesh. It is owned, maintained and operated by Dhaka Mass Transit Company Limited, a government agency. Together with the city's proposed subway system, it is expected to reduce traffic congestion in the city. It is part of the Strategic Transport Plan (STP) outlined by the Dhaka Transport Coordination Authority.[6]

The first phase of Dhaka Metro's MRT Line 6 commenced commercial operations on 28 December 2022, after being inaugurated by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, with metro services being available to general commuters the next day.[7][8] The construction of MRT Line 6's second phase is scheduled to be completed by 2023.[9] The third phase will contain an additional 1.16 km extension at Kamalapur railway station which will have an interchange with MRT Line 1, MRT Lines 2 and 4 are set to be completed by 2025.[10][11][12] The network is planned to contain six lines. Of these, two are under construction, with the rest still in the planning stages.

History

In an effort to implement Dhaka's 20-year-long Strategic Transport Plan (STP), the Government of Bangladesh 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 Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) was signed in January 2013.

Dhaka Mass Transit Company Limited (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.[13]

History of MRT Line-6

Construction

Line-6 under construction in 2020

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.[14] Construction began on 26 June 2016 with an inauguration ceremony presided over by the prime minister Sheikh Hasina.[15] Civil engineering work was 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.[16][17]

Construction work was divided into eight packages, covering aspects like depots, stations and rolling stock.[18]

Planning

When construction started in 2016, opening was expected by the end of 2019.[15] By 2018, this expectation was still held to, but by 2019, completion of phase one was delayed to December 2021.[19] In 2018, the second phase was expected to be complete by December 2020.[19][20] Eventually, these dates were pushed back, with phase one opening in 2022 and phase two expected in 2023.[21] The main reason for the delays from 2020 to 2022 was the COVID-19 pandemic.[22]

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, although the full Project is not yet completed. The first route, originally projected to start from Uttara, a northern area of Dhaka, to Sayedabad, in the south of the capital,[23] was eventually extended north to Uttara and truncated south to Motijheel.[24] The original length which was 20.10 km (12.49 mi) has been increased by 1.16 km to 21.26 km (13.21 mi). It was planned to have 16 stations originally but it has been increased to 17 stations.[25]

Misconceptions

The project was originally reported to be a 27 km (17 mi) underground metro rail line. It was later confirmed to be an elevated and underground metro rail project.[26] In 2014, it was reported that 56 trains would run on the metro system.[27] It was confirmed that 24 vehicles would run on the MRT Line-6.[19] It was planned to have six lines.

Trial runs

MRT Line-6's train made its first run on 29 August 2021. It traveled from Diabari Depot to Mirpur 12. It successfully made its second run on 29 November 2021. It traveled from Uttara to Mirpur 10. The line's train made its longest trial run on 12 December 2021. It traveled from Uttara to Agargaon. The train ran for 11.3 km (7.0 mi). It ran at 100 km/h for 9 km (5.6 mi) and ran at 15–20 km (9.3–12.4 mi) for the rest.[28]

Overview

Line 6 consists of 16 elevated stations of 180m length each, 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. Mostly, this will be above road medians to allow traffic flow underneath, with stations also elevated. The Dhaka Metro is projected to serve more than 60,000 passengers per hour by 2022, with headways of approximately 4 minutes.[29] The entire route can 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.[30][31] 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.[31]

The project is being managed by the Communications Ministry's Dhaka Transport Co-ordination Authority, and a consortium of foreign and Bangladeshi firms known as the NKDM Association is acting as the project's general consultant. The NKDM Association consists of Nippon Koei Japan and Development Design Consultants (local consultant - Bangladesh).
