Abstract

The study focuses into the socio-economic impact of rural bridges in Bangladesh and their significant contribution to community development. Through comprehensive research and rigorous quantitative analysis, the study assesses various dimensions, including accessibility, economic opportunities, livelihood enhancement, and infrastructure development facilitated by rural bridges. The key findings underscore the indispensable role of bridge infrastructure in bolstering connectivity, curbing transportation costs, and catalyzing economic growth, thereby fostering inclusivity and alleviating poverty. Additionally, the study illuminates the positive effects of rural bridges on enhancing access to education, healthcare, and markets for rural populations. In light of these insights, the study puts forth actionable recommendations aimed at maximizing the benefits derived from rural bridges, with a focus on targeted interventions, sustainable infrastructure strategies, and meaningful community engagement. Ultimately, the study highlights the transformative potential of rural bridges in driving Bangladesh's development agenda forward and advancing socio-economic prosperity across rural landscapes.
