Plans are in motion to erect a temporary accessway at the Bambalapitiya railway station.
According to the President’s Media Division (PMD), the measures have been taken in this regard on the directives of President Ranil Wickremesinghe.
The temporary accessway at the Bambalapitiya railway station is expected to be constructed within 10 days of removing the current flyover.
The President has also instructed for a new bridge to be constructed within 5 months.
The PMD added that the State Quantity & Construction Corporation has been entrusted with the project, under the oversight of the Road Development Authority (RDA).
The steps have been taken after recent media reports had exposed the dilapidated state of the accessway of the Bambalapitiya railway station. (NewsWire)
