Dhaka–Ashulia Elevated Expressway
Dhaka–Ashulia Elevated Expressway is an under-construction elevated expressway project in Bangladesh. Once built, the expressway will become Bangladesh’s third elevated expressway and connect Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport with Abdullahpur, Ashulia, Baipayl and Dhaka Export Processing Zone (DEPZ) on the Nabinagar–Chandra highway.[1][2] Near the airport it will meet the Dhaka Elevated Expressway.[3] The project is being implemented by Bangladesh Bridge Authority (BBA). In March 2024, the authority announced plans to construct a trumpet interchange at Baipayl, where three major roads converge, aimed at enhancing traffic flow. However, the introduction of this interchange will necessitate design modifications, potentially resulting in a cost increase of ৳500 crore (US$41 million) for the overall project.[4] See alsoReferences
