rapid bus service
Dhaka Bus Rapid Transit likely to be functional from July 2023
Operation of the country’s first dedicated rapid bus service -- from Dhaka airport to Gazipur -- is likely to start in July next year, more than six and a half years after its original deadline.
BRT route may now be halved
The rapid bus service, much touted as a way to ease the capital's chronic traffic congestion, may be implemented only in part, and that too not before 2024, as arbitrarily built flyovers block its proposed route, said officials and transport experts.
