Dhaka MRT Line 6

Dhaka Metro Rail is a mass rapid transit system under construction in Dhaka, the capital and the busiest city of Bangladesh.


MRT Line 6 consists of 16 elevated stations that are each 180 meters long and 20.1 kilometers of electricity-powered light rail tracks. Except for the depot and some of the LRT (Light Rapid Transit) that would run beside it, Line 6 will be elevated over current roadways, largely above road medians, to let traffic to flow beneath it, with stations likewise elevated.


Dextra supplied various solutions to the project.

  • 50,000 linear meters of Sonitec, an easy-to-assemble and time-saving tube solution used for the CSL (crosshole sonic logging) testing of foundation piles.
  • 1,000 sets of Shear Key system, a post tensioning bar system that acts as a permanent seismic restrainer for the connection of elevated metro precast segments.
  • More than 50,000 pieces of Bartec coupler were also applied for the reinforcement of the station structures.

  • Construction of Line 6 is anticipated to be completed in 2022.
