মাওয়া হাইওয়ে, ঢাকা

Once a deserted and secluded area, Mawa Highway has been enshrined with glory and grandeur, thanks to the inauguration of Padma Bridge. Life and livelihood have bloomed ever since the bridge connected Dhaka with the southern region of Bangladesh. The Dhaka-Mawa highway stretches 55 km, and lives are happening around this road.

It is difficult to pinpoint the starting point of this highway, but in this Mawa Highway area guide, we can denote the starting point from Jatrabari. This highway extends towards the southern part of Mawa, connecting with the Padma Bridge and Paturia Ferry Terminal.

Due to the expressway, the distance from Dhaka to Mawa has been diminutive. So, many city dwellers are choosing to settle their nests at Mawa and commuting to Dhaka for office or business purposes. Such a tendency has shown a pick in the prices of lands and apartments.

Many real estate agencies are promoting their next ventures, focusing on this location. Driving through the highway, you will notice some new buildings and housing. The Sheikh Russel cantonment has become a boost and boon for the economy of this region. The adjacent lands see a spike in the prices.

In addition to becoming a new home for Dhaka-dwellers, Mawa has been a great getaway from the chaotic hustle and bustle of city life. People prefer to spend a relaxing day shooting for a long drive on the Mawa Highway. The fresh Hilsha fish and the unique preparation at the restaurants have uplifted the economy and fate of Mawa-dwellers.
