Schedule and timetables
What MRT Line 6 actually does, taken from the timetable DMTCL publishes itself: first and last train at both terminals for weekdays, Fridays and government holidays, and the real interval bands — which run from five minutes at the busiest times to twenty at the very start and end of the day.

DMTCL publishes departure times for the two terminals and the interval bands between them — not a time for each station. At an intermediate station the first train arrives a few minutes after it leaves the terminal, and trains then come at the interval shown above. One block of the weekday table on the operator's own page is printed without its heading or its time range, so we do not reproduce it.

What DMTCL does not publish
There is no official first/last train time for each individual station. DMTCL publishes the departure times of the two terminals and the interval bands between them, and nothing more. Any site showing a neat station-by-station clock table — including, until August 2026, this one — has calculated it rather than sourced it.
In practice it hardly matters: with a train every 5 to 10 minutes for most of the day, what you need is the first and last departure from your terminal, which is above. If you are catching the last train, work back from 21:50 at Uttara North or 22:30 at Motijheel and allow the running time to your station.
