Dhaka – Payra railway to be developed by UK company

Despite the fact that Dhaka is the 18th largest metropolitan city around the world, the city doesn't have urban rail system nor freight rail system for bulk transportation.
The former seems to begin construction earlier than metro systems.
Dhaka metro is expected to open in 2021, while Dhaka metro will open in 2023.
