BD Project Summary 2018

Project :

Construction of Railway Parallel to the Existing with Provision of Double over River Jamuna ().

The roject Brief:

The railway bridge parallel to existing Bangabandhu Bridge with Provision of dual gauge double track over the Jamuna River will be located about 300 m upstream of the existing bridge and will pass through the Jamuna Eco Park connecting with the Existing Track of Bangabandhu Setu West Railways Station. The proposed main railway bridge length is 4.8 KM. There are a total of 19 other beifhes and culverts in this Project, each having a total length varying from 1.0 m to 30 m. There is only one ‘A’ class Traffic Level crossing in Bangabandhu Setu East. This may need upgrading to ‘special’ class. The proposed alignment will not likely require additional bank protection other than the already existing river training work for the Bangabandhu bridge. The proposed alignment will avoid substantial adverse social impacts of the project.

The existing bridge crossing the river is a single track DG bridge. The bridge was originally built for the highway traffic and subsequently modified to carry trains over it. However, because of this modification, some restrictions were imposed by the bridge authority on train movements.

Project Finance:

The project is fully financed by JICA / ADB / GOB (Government of Bangladesh).

Summary:

We wish to engage with a reputable Japanese firm for the upcoming tender. Due to our relations with the Ministry we can assure to our prospective partners a very high success rate. Prior to the participation we will organise meetings with all relevant officials in charge including but not limited to Project officials and ministry officials. All details can be discussed at these meetings which will last from 2-3 days.

We look forward to receiving interest from your organisation at the earliest.
