loved it
Before building jamuna bridge West Bengal people are coming across the Jamuna River and communication with Dhaka and other cities.
nice place
Bahadurabad ghat is a historical place in our country. Before completing the Jamuna Bridge people who are living in the northern part of our country used this ghat for crossing the river through streamer. Now a days people using the bridge for connecting with north that's why this place is not crowded like before.
Sweet
Very popular place, related with our liberation war
একসময় এই স্থানটি দিয়ে পশ্চিম ও উত্তর বাংলাদেশের লোকজন যাতায়াত করতো স্টিমার চড়ে। বঙ্গবন্ধু সেতু নির্মিত হবার পর এটি বন্ধ। বন্ধ হয়েছে এই এলাকার মানুষের উপার্জনের উপায়। এলাকাটি অনেক সুন্দর।
I had a journey crossing the river by steemer in 1981 while we travel from Dhaka to Meherpur by train with my father.
Ferries at Bahadurabad Ghat and Jagannathganj Ghat::::-----
In Bangladesh, ferries are often an integrated part of the railway system. There were two major ferry points across the Jamuna, one between Bahadurabad Ghat and Tistamukh Ghat and the other between Jagannath Ghat and Sirajganj Ghat.
The ferry system had reached the limits of its capacity. While marginal capacity additions were still feasible, to cope with any significant increase in capacity or even normal traffic growth was virtually felt to be impossible.
The construction of the 4.8 kilometres (3.0 mi) Bangabandhu Bridge has completely changed the scope of communication systems in that part of the country. The ferry system at both the Bahadurabad Ghat–Balashi Ghat and the Jagannathganj Ghat-Sirajganj Ghat was virtually closed. Only limited freight transportation continued on the Bahadurabad Ghat-Balashi section. Even that has been closed down in 2010 because of formation of shoal in the river.
As of 2010, the Teesta Express runs from Dhaka to Bahadurabad on all days except Monday when it terminates at Dewanganj. The Brahmaputra Express terminates at Dewanganj Bazar. There are a number of other trains terminating at Dewanganj. The Mymensingh Express terminates at Jagannathganj Ghat. The Jamuna Express terminates at Tarakandi
