Two service bridges on the Dhaka-Ashulia Expressway have been opened to traffic, providing commuters with an alternative route between the capital and peripheral areas. The completion of these bridges represents progress in the ongoing expressway development, which aims to reduce travel time and alleviate congestion on existing routes.
The service bridges are designed to facilitate local traffic movement while the main expressway handles long-distance transport. This dual-structure approach is intended to improve traffic flow by separating through traffic from local vehicles accessing nearby areas and commercial establishments.
The opening is expected to benefit residents, businesses, and commuters in both Dhaka and Ashulia, offering them faster and more efficient travel options. The bridges will also provide better access to commercial zones and residential areas along the expressway corridor.
The expressway project continues to progress with ongoing construction work on additional sections. Authorities have indicated that further improvements and extensions are planned as part of the broader infrastructure development initiative aimed at enhancing regional connectivity around the capital.
