Welcome to Metro Dhaka

Dhaka Metro Rail (DMTCL) opened to the public in December 2022 with the first segment of MRT Line 6 — the first metro line in Bangladesh. The full route from Uttara North to Motijheel (16 stations, 20.1 km) followed: the section to Motijheel was inaugurated on 4 November 2023 and all 16 stations were in service by 31 December 2023. It serves the busiest north-south corridor of the capital. The rest of the planned network — MRT Lines 1, 2, 4, 5N and 5S — is under construction or still in planning, and none of those lines has a confirmed opening date yet.

MRT Line 6 — the only operating line

A 20.1 km fully-elevated rapid transit line with 16 stations, connecting Uttara in the north to Motijheel (CBD) in the south. Operates with 6-car Japanese-built trainsets every 5–6 minutes at the busiest times and every 8 minutes off-peak (DMTCL timetable). Fares range from ৳20 to ৳100 depending on distance.
