About Uttara Center

Uttara Center serves the heart of the Uttara Model Town — primarily Sectors 6 and 7, two of the largest planned residential sectors in northern Dhaka. The station opened on 18 February 2023, a few weeks after the first section of MRT Line 6 began service.

Within a short walk you have the Sector 7 park, several schools and tutorial centres, mosques, the Rajlokkhi commercial area and a dense cluster of restaurants serving breakfast, biriyani and South Asian food.

The station is elevated with concourse access on both sides of Sonargaon Janapath, making cross-road transfers easier than at most surface intersections in this part of Dhaka.
