Starting in July, Chuadanga residents will have direct train access to Dhaka, reducing travel time to five hours. The new route via Padma Bridge will see two trains operating daily. This service is expected to greatly benefit commuters, providing faster and more efficient travel options.
The Dhaka-Darshana route will operate with two trains daily, one departing Darshana at 7 am and arriving in Dhaka at noon, with a return trip at 1 pm. Another train will run from 4:30 pm to 9:40 pm, and from 11:55 pm to 5 am the next morning.
Local businesses express concerns over potential declines in trade due to decreased hotel stays, while commuters and workers in Dhaka welcome the convenience. The introduction of these trains is anticipated to significantly improve connectivity and travel efficiency.
