Kuril Flyover

Kuril flyover is a 8.9 metre wide and 14.6 metre high flyover constructed on Kuril Bishwa Road with an aim to reduce traffic congestion in adjoining areas.

It comprises four sections providing uninterrupted connection among Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, Nikunja, Banani, Rampura and Purbachal areas.

According to a Rajuk estimate of 2007, around 1,57,000 vehicles coming from the five aforementioned areas crosses the Kuril intersection every day.

At present, a level crossing at the intersection closes 98 times every day, halting traffic for a total of eight hours and creating around one-kilometre long tailbacks in the five directions.

The flyover would help in the uninterrupted movement of traffic, saving valuable time and fuel of commuters.
