The Padma Multipurpose Bridge is set to open its door to connect Dhaka with the southern part of Bangladesh on June 25, 2022. The design of the Padma Bridge has some rare features. And these rare features have brought Bangladesh a reputation of excellence to the whole world. Although close to the river, the water distance from the railway bridge will be at least 18 meters.

In addition to the general lighting system on the bridge, there is 'architectural lighting'. A museum has also been set up to beautify the bridge.
