Transportation

Dhubri is well-connected by multiple modes of transport, though its riverine geography presents unique challenges.

* **Roads:** National Highway 17 (NH-17) connects Dhubri to Guwahati and West Bengal. Regular state and private bus services operate from the city. * **Rail:** Dhubri Railway Station is part of the Northeast Frontier Railway zone. It connects to the mainline at Fakiragram, offering trains to Guwahati, Siliguri, and beyond. * **Air:** The Rupsi Airport, located about 15 km from the city, was recently revived under the central government's UDAN scheme, offering direct flights to Guwahati and Kolkata. * **Waterways:** As part of National Waterway 2 (the Brahmaputra River), the Dhubri river port facilitates cargo movement to Bangladesh and passenger ferry services to adjacent riverine islands and the south bank of the river. * **Local Transit:** E-rickshaws (locally known as 'Totos') and auto-rickshaws are the primary modes of point-to-point transit within the city limits.
