Meghna-Gomati Bridge fully opened yesterday afternoon for traffic after completion of the maintenance work.

A Japanese company repaired the 17 expansion joints of the 1410- meter bridge at a cost of Taka 3 crore.

For the maintenance work, the movement of heavy vehicles was restricted from May 15, 2008 on the bridge connecting Chittagong Port City and 10 other districts.

The bridge was constructed in 1994.
