Sylhet, March 3 -- Known for its scenic landscape but constrained by poor road infrastructure, Sylhet division is poised for a major overhaul as the government moves ahead with a Tk 1,952 crore project to upgrade and widen crucial upazila and union roads.

The project , titled "Widening and Strengthening of Important Upazila and Union Roads in Sylhet Division," will be implemented by the Local Government Engineering Department (LGED) under the Local Government Division with full funding from the Government of Bangladesh.

Scheduled for completion by June 2029, the project will cover all 41 upazilas in the division's four districts, aiming to modernise rural connectivity, boost economic activity and support agricultural growth.
