92pc works of Padma Bridge completed: Quader
Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader today said about 92 per cent of construction works of the much-awaited Padma Bridge has been completed so far.

“We’ve already completed 92 per cent of construction works of the main bridge while the overall progress of the bridge project is 84 per cent,” he told
reporters after visiting the construction works of Padma Bridge at Mawa site this morning.

After completion of the construction works of the Padma Bridge Project, the bridge will be open for vehicle movement by June 2022,” he said.

Quader, also the Awami League General Secretary, said the future development of the country will run centring the bridge as a revolutionary change will come in the country’s communication sector after the construction of the Padma Bridge.

Replying to a question, he said bringing discipline in roads and transport sector and turning the ruling Awami League into a disciplined political party
to help Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina implement Vision 2021, Vision 2041 and Delta Plan are the main challenges for him.

“Personally, I have no new dream. I mixed up my dreams with the dreams of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and his eligible
daughter Sheikh Hasina,” Quader added.
