  • A Century of Riverbank Protection and River Training in Bangladesh
    water Article A Century of Riverbank Protection and River Training in Bangladesh Knut Oberhagemann 1,*, A. M. Aminul Haque 2 and Angela Thompson 1 1 Northwest Hydraulic Consultants, Edmonton, AB T6X 0E3, Canada; [email protected] 2 Bangladesh Water Development Board, Dhaka 1205, Bangladesh; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 27 September 2020; Accepted: 25 October 2020; Published: 27 October 2020 Abstract: Protecting against riverbank erosion along the world’s largest rivers is challenging. The Bangladesh Delta, bisected by the Brahmaputra River (also called the Jamuna River), is rife with complexity. Here, an emerging middle-income country with the world’s highest population density coexists with the world’s most unpredictable and largest braided, sand-bed river. Bangladesh has struggled over decades to protect against the onslaught of a continuously widening river corridor. Many of the principles implemented successfully in other parts of the world failed in Bangladesh. To this end, Bangladesh embarked on intensive knowledge-based developments and piloted new technologies. After two decades, successful, sustainable, low-cost riverbank protection technology was developed, suitable for the challenging river conditions. It was necessary to accept that no construction is permanent in this morphologically dynamic environment. What was initially born out of fund shortages became a cost-effective, systematic and adaptive approach to riverbank protection using improved knowledge, new materials, and new techniques, in the form of geobag revetments. This article provides an overview of the challenges faced when attempting to stabilize the riverbanks of the mighty rivers of Bangladesh. An overview of the construction of the major bridge crossings as well as riverbank protection schemes is detailed.

There are 213 rivers in our country where 20 major bridges were constructed in our country. Five more bridges are now under construction among them Padma Multipurpose Bridge is the largest and most challenging. It will be the first fixed river crossing for road traffic and it will connect Louhajong, Munshiganj to Shariatpur and Madaripur, linking the south-west of the country, to northern and eastern regions. With 150 m span, 6150 m total length and 18.10 m width it is going to be the largest bridge in the Padma-Brahmaputra-Meghna river basins of country in terms of both span and the total length. The study discusses about both positive and negative impacts of the project on different aspects of Bangladesh.

  • Bangladesh: Subregional Transport Project Preparatory Facility
    Subregional Transport Project Preparatory Facility (RRP BAN 44142) DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION A. Major Development Partners: Strategic Foci and Key Activities 1. Major development partners in the Bangladesh transport sector are the World Bank, the Department for International Development of the United Kingdom (DFID), the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) Fund for International Development, the Islamic Development Bank, and the Kuwait Fund for Arab Economic Development. Several bilateral agencies have also assisted the rural infrastructure sector. The development partners are united in supporting Bangladesh's National Land Transport Policy to ensure sustainable maintenance of roads and ensure that other sector governance issues are addressed. In subsectors where other development partners play a leading role, such as in inland water transport and telecommunication, ADB has taken a supportive role. 2. In the roads subsector, ADB provides support for road maintenance and improvement, while JICA provides support for bridge rehabilitation and construction. The Padma Bridge project is under preparation, which is expected to be financed by the World Bank, ADB, JICA and other development partners. JICA provided the initial feasibility study, while ADB is supporting an update of the feasibility study and preparation of the detailed design. 3. In the railway subsector, ADB has provided a multitranche financing facility for the Railway Sector Investment Program 1 ($430 million facility) in Bangladesh, approved in October 2006. This investment program demonstrates most ideal coordination among key development partners in the country. The sector reform framework agreed in the investment program provides a platform for the World Bank and JICA to be based for their financing.

Left: The Akashi Kaikyo Bridge (AKB) is a three-span, two-hinged stiffening girder system suspension bridge that spans the Akashi Strait between Maiko, Tarumi-ward in Kobe, and Matsuho, on Awaji Island. After various investigations including aerodynamic tests on large scale three dimensional prototypes, actual construction of the bridge began in May 1988, and took a total often years. The AKB was opened to traffic on April 5, 1998. The AKB become the longest suspension bridges in the world, surpassing the Humber Bridge (England, 1,410 meter center span) by 581 meters. Although in primary design the AKB was 3,910 meters long overall, with a center span of 1,990 meters, it was extended 1 meter by the Great Hanshin Earthquake (January 17, 1995).

  • Paksey Bridge Construction Project (I) (II) (L/A No
    Official Use Only Bangladesh Paksey Bridge Construction Project (I) (II) (L/A No. BD-P42, BD-P50) Evaluator: Hajime Sonoda, Global Group 21 Japan, Inc. Field survey: March 2008 1. Project Profile and Japan’s ODA Loan Site Map Paksey Bridge 1.1 Background Bangladesh (pop. 141 million, 2004) is geographically divided by three of the world’s largest rivers (Ganges/Padma River, Jamuna River, Meghna River). Ferries used to cross these large rivers bottleneck road traffic, and prevent balanced development of the country. In 1993 a bridge over the Meghna River on the road connecting the capital city of Dhaka and the international port city of Chittagong had already been completed through Japanese grant aid. Construction had also been planned for a multipurpose bridge (Jamuna Bridge) over the Jamuna River that divides Dhaka and the northwest region, to be co-financed by JBIC, the World Bank, and the Asian Development Bank. However, there were no concrete bridge plans for the Ganges River that divides the northwest and southwest regions or the Padma River (downstream of the Ganges River), which divides the east and southwest regions. Thus, road traffic to the southwest region, which encompasses Khulna, the third largest city in the country, as well as Mongla, the second largest international port, was forced to use these inefficient ferries. In Paksey, the target area of this project, there is already a railway bridge (Hardinge Bridge) that was built during the British colonial period. However, the construction of a road bridge to this area would not only increase the efficiency of road transport between the northwest and southwest regions, but would also create a bypass to connect Dhaka, Khulna, and Mongla Port using the Jamuna Bridge until a bridge over the Padma River was built in the future.

  • Design, Construction and Maintenance of Bridges in Bangladesh: in the Past, Present and Future
    IABSE-JSCE Joint Conference on Advances in Bridge Engineering-III, August 21-22, 2015, Dhaka, Bangladesh. ISBN: 978-984-33-9313-5 Amin, Okui, Bhuiyan, Ueda (eds.) www.iabse-bd.org Design, construction and maintenance of bridges in Bangladesh: In the past, present and future A.F.M.S. Amin Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology, Dhaka 1000, Bangladesh Y. Okui Saitama University, Saitama 338-0825, Japan ABSTRACT: Bridges are the life lines of not only a country but a region or beyond. This is true for Bangla- desh as her geopolitical boundaries place the country in a strategic situation giving ample opportunity to be- come a hub for a sub-regional to global land transport network. Owning a resilient bridge infrastructure for the Asian region and considering country’s location, geomorphological conditions and climatic variations are important for future growth of transportation network. To this end in view, the paper takes a note of the con- struction of a few land mark bridges those taken place between 1870 AD to present. The major engineering aspects and the performances are being discussed in a broader sense. Finally, the paper presents an outlook identifying the gaps in understanding for achieving an efficient design with the present know-how available elsewhere in the world. The necessity of maintenance aspects is being discussed in short. Salient design, con- struction and maintenance considerations that the future national design code/ standard for bridges in Bangla- desh needs to contain are indicated. 1 INTRODUCTION The most ancient geographical description of the Ganges delta forming Bangladesh is found in the Claudius Ptolemy’s map sketched in 150 AD.

  • 3. Access Road Development
    Final Report Preparatory Survey on Matarbari Port Development Project in the People’s Republic of Bangladesh 3. ACCESS ROAD DEVELOPMENT 3.1 Present Situation of Road Transport Infrastructure 3.1.1 Present Road Network in Bangladesh The RHD’s road network consists of total of 21,302 km of National, Regional and Zila Roads, which makes up 6% of the total road network in Bangladesh. The road condition has been improved and over 90% of the roads are compared to a value of in 1991. The Asian Highways are the most important corridors not only for the domestic economic activities but also for multinational economic forum such as SAARC, SASEC, BIMSTEC and BCIM aiming to contribute to the multinational region functioning as a gateway to the hinterland countries and induce synergetic economic growth in Bangladesh. At the site of the Matarbari Port Development Project, National Highway No.1 is the most important arterial road designated as the Asian Highway No.41, which functions as a port access from AH1 or AH2 to Chittagong and Mongla Ports. (1) Present Road Condition The road network in Bangladesh consists of six road categories: National Highways, Regional Highways, Zila Roads, Upazila Roads, Union Roads and Village Roads. As summarized in the table below, a total of21,302 km of National, Regional and Zila Roads are under the jurisdiction of the Roads and Highways Department (RHD), under the Ministry of Road Transport and Bridges (MORTB) and a total of 333,589 km of Upazila, Union and Village Roads are under the jurisdiction of Local Government Engineering Department (LGED).
