About Uttara South

Uttara South sits at the southern entrance of Uttara Model Town, close to the historically busy House Building bus stand intersection. It serves Sectors 3 and 4 plus the southern fringe of Sector 1 and the eastern Azampur area.

The station opened with the rest of the northern segment on 28 December 2022 and acts as the main gateway between the metro and the dense bus and CNG auto-rickshaw network of southern Uttara — local long-distance and intercity buses from northern Bangladesh terminate around the House Building area.

Uttara South is an elevated station with twin concourses connected to both sides of the Airport Road, easing the usually congested east-west pedestrian crossings.
