The Dhaka BRT (Bengali: ঢাকা বিআরটি, romanised: Dhaka Bi-Ar-Ti) or Dhaka Line[1] (Bengali: ঢাকা লাইন) is a bus rapid transit system under construction in Dhaka, Bangladesh.
The original plan for the network included two lines: BRT Line-3 and BRT Line-7. Currently, only the northern section of BRT Line-3 is under construction, scheduled for completion by June 2024,[2] while the other route is still in the planning phase.[3][4]
