On 28 March, traffic movement on the Airport Road was restricted for seven hours from 31 March to 24 June for the construction of a bridge of the third terminal.
More than 70% of the construction work has been completed on the third terminal till March this year, according to the CAAB sources.
Officials say the soft launch of the much-awaited terminal is expected to be within October this year.
The terminal can serve twice the number of passengers that the Dhaka Airport is handling currently once the construction is completed, officials said.
