How Many Sectors Are in Uttara?
Uttara has 18 sectors. Each sector is a planned block of residential plots and roads, with parks or lakes in most cases.
The town began as the Dhaka Improvement Trust's North Satellite Town project, now RAJUK, with its foundation stone laid in 1967.
It was renamed Uttara Residential Model Town in 1980.
Sectors 1 to 10 fall under Ward 01 of Dhaka North City Corporation, and Sectors 11 to 14 under Ward 51.
What Is the Uttara All Sector List by Phase?
Uttara's sector numbers follow its three development phases. The table below groups every sector.
Phase | Sectors | Completed | Location |
|---|---|---|---|
1st phase | 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 | By 1990 | Original town, on both sides of the highway |
2nd phase | 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 | 1998 | Westward expansion |
3rd phase | 15, 16, 17, 18 | Planned 1999; finalised 2009 | West of the 2nd phase, toward the embankment |
Phase dates from public records of the Uttara Model Town project.
How Is Uttara Divided Into East and West?
The Dhaka–Mymensingh Highway (Airport Road) runs north–south through Uttara and splits the older sectors into two sides:
Uttara West: Sectors 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 12, 13 and 14, between the highway and the western sectors.
Uttara East: the remaining first-phase sectors, including 4 and 6, between the highway and the railway line.
Third phase: Sectors 15 to 18, further west, bounded by the Mirpur–Ashulia flood embankment.
What Does Each Uttara Sector Offer? A Sector-by-Sector Uttara Sector Guide
Each sector has its own character, from busy commercial hubs to quiet residential lanes. The notes below cover the sectors people search for most.
What Is Uttara Sector 1 Known For?
Uttara Sector 1 sits at the southern end of Uttara, where Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport ends.

What Is Uttara Sector 2?
Uttara Sector 2 is one of the first-phase sectors on the eastern side.
Much of its land is allocated for official use rather than open private sale, so buyers searching for a Sector 2 map should check plot status on RAJUK's map viewer before considering any listing.

Uttara Sector 3 is one of the busiest sectors, with Rajlakshmi Complex, the Friends Club playground, and Scholastica's junior section.
It lies beside the highway and has a sub-post office with postal code 1231.

It sits on the eastern side near Azampur and Jashimuddin bus stands, with schools such as Milestone School & College and The Aga Khan School nearby.
The Dhaka North City Corporation office lies at its northern edge.
