Uttara
South, Shewrapara metro rail stations to open on Friday
Two new metro rail
stations -- Uttara South and Shewrapara -- are scheduled to be opened on
Friday.
With the opening of
these stations, total nine stations from Uttara to Agargaon will come into
operation, according to Dhaka Mass Transit Company Ltd (DMTCL).
DMTCL, which operates
the metro rail services, has formed two teams to coordinate with the operation
teams of the Uttara South and Sewrapara stations, according to an office order
issued Wednesday.
At first, metro trains
were operated between Uttara and Agargaon without any stoppages. The
authorities opened five other stations gradually.
Currently, the metro
rail is being operated from 8:30am to 12:30pm. The authorities earlier said
they will increase the duration of the train operation after opening all nine
stations.
They will go for
full-fledged (morning to midnight) operation from July.
