The Dhaka metro rail will run straight from Uttara to Agargaon without stopping at intermediate stations along the route for now. That means passengers will get more time to buy tickets and board and exit the trains, according to an official of Dhaka Mass Transit Company Limited, operator of the metro rail, reports bdnews24.com. Following the inauguration of the metro rail on Wednesday, passengers will be able to ride the train the next day. Initially, the trains will run from 8 am to 12 pm and the time will be extended later and the number of trains will be increased as per demand. A few of them were able to complete the final stage.”The authorities will increase the number of trips, trains and stoppages at intermediate stations when people become familiar with the metro rail, Siddique said.
