Opening of Galle to Matara expressway put off
Posted by Unknown on Tuesday, January 14, 2014 | 0 comments
This move has been prompted by the delay in completing the access point from Nupe Junction in Matara to Godagama and the landscaping of the stretch of land from Pinnaduwa to Godagama.
Presidential coordinator Ven. Getamanne Gunanada Thera said the opening was scheduled to take place during the first week of March this year.
Government sources indicate that this section of the Southern Expressway would be commissioned before the elections to the Southern Provincial Council.
Meanwhile the delay had attracted a large number of peacocks to this section of the highway and the peacocks entertain the visitors with a colourful dance, which is a wonderful sight for tired eyes.
