Two Padma Bridge routes: via Gopalganj and Khulna (Tungipara Express and Emad Paribahan, from Gulistan and Dholaipar) and via Narail and Jashore (Shohagh Paribahan, SP Golden Line, Satkhira Line); some Gabtoli and Shyamoli buses still use the Paturia ferry via Magura and Jashore. BRTA's chart re-fixed on 22 Sep 2026 (Tk 2.40 per km plus toll) lists Sayedabad–Satkhira via the Padma Bridge, Bhanga, Gopalganj and Khulna (254 km) at Tk 686 in a 51-seat bus and Tk 875 in a 40-seat bus. Via Narail, Jashore and Kalaroa (253 km) it is Tk 690 / Tk 880. Counters were quoting Tk 750–870 non-AC and Tk 950–1,300 AC for travel on 12 Oct 2026 (seen 8 Oct 2026 on Shohoz and bdtickets).
