Elevated highways to link Colombo, Peliyagoda and Rajagiriya:

by Rohana Jayalal

The Government plans to build two elevated highways linking Colombo to Peliyagoda and Rajagiriya to ease traffic congestion and connect the suburbs to the Expressways.

An artist’s impression of the elevated highways​

The construction of elevated highways will be one of the government’s top priorities and the project is due to begin in September, Director General of Road Development Authority (RDA), M.P.K.L. Gunaratne told Sunday Observer Business.

The heavy vehicular traffic on Colombo roads has adversely affected commuters and the authorities, particularly during peak hours.

A survey has revealed that the government loses Rs. 35,000 million annually due to traffic congestion in Colombo, and it translates into massive socio-economic and environmental losses.

Elevated highways will link Colombo with key suburban towns, according to a three-year project being formulated. It is being carried out jointly by the Ministry of Megapolis and the Ministry of Highways, Gunaratne said.

Chairman, Road Development Authority (RDA), Nihal Suriyaarachchi said the estimated cost of the project would be around Rs. 130 billion and it would be on a Build-Operate-and Transfer (BOT) basis over a 25-year period.

The elevated highways would be built mainly over canals and Port Authority lands, to avoid the relocation of people as much as possible. The government hopes the elevated highways would be a major part of the solution to the ever-increasing traffic congestion in Colombo and the suburbs such as Battaramulla and Rajagiriya, Gunaratne said.

It will facilitate uninterrupted transport of cargo and containers from Colombo and the suburbs and ease the traffic congestion in the Colombo urban area. It would take about 10 minutes to reach Galle Face from Rajagiriya on the elevated highway, he said.

The elevated highways will be linked with the Colombo outer-circular road in Pore, Athurugriya, with the Katunayake Expressway at Peliyagoda, while another extension would be linked with Baseline Road near the Railway grounds at Dematagoda, he said.

According to Gunaratne, a 21.6 km long elevated highway will be built from Athurugiriya to Colombo Fort via Malabe, Battaramulla, Rajagiriya, Dematagoda and Orugodawatte.

Construction work will begin soon on the two elevated highways, one 6.9 kilometres long, with three lanes on one side, will link Peliyagoda to Rajagiriya, with access to the Outer Circular Expressway.

It has also been decided to build an Expressway at an estimated cost of Rs. 94 billion via Battaramulla, Malabe, and Athurugiriya, It will be connected with the Outer Circular Highway in the second phase and the northern end will connect the Katunayake Expressway.

The second elevated highway, a distance of 5.8 kilometres, will be constructed from Peliyagoda to the Colombo Port, to ease traffic congestion in the city, at an estimated cost of Rs. 36 billion.

The projects will be funded by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the Government of Japan, he said.

The elevated highways constructed to ease traffic congestion, would have access from Malabe, the Koswatta junction, Rajagiriya, Madinnagoda and Kolonnawa.

This will be in addition to access from a point close to the Fort Railway station, the Port City, Peliyagoda and Dematagoda.

It will be further extended to Duplication Road. The proposed project is expected to be completed within three years, Gunaratne said. The proposed elevated highways project would be one of the top most projects to be launched this year.

Colombo suburban railway electrification project to cost USD300mn



May 12, 2016 (LBO) – Colombo suburban railway electrification project phase one which initially focuses on 64 kilometers along Veyangoda – Panadura section will cost 300 million US dollars to implement.

Energy consultant Dr. Tilak Siyambalapitiya speaking at a seminar said the project will support the modernization of the railway network in the Western Province of Sri Lanka.

“The government has been pledged a soft loan by the ADB. Phase two of the project will also cost another 300 million US dollars,” Siyambalapitiya said.

The Asian Development Bank last year approved one million US dollars for the technical assistance of the project and it is yet to approve 300 million US dollars loan.

The project will improve the capacity and operating speed of the railway network in the Colombo Metropolitan Region by modernizing and upgrading track, signaling infrastructure; and potentially electrifying the suburban railway lines.

The average speed on the Main Line is currently around 33 kilometers per hour (kph) while the speed on the coastal line is around 28 kph.

Under the new project, tracks will be improved to allow 100 km per hour, and will be fenced to avoid accidents.

On average over 110,000 passengers per direction enter the Colombo city by rail during a normal working day, which translates into around 13 percent of all passenger movements.

Since electric power sets are more energy efficient, the net fuel saving will be about 40 rupees per train km, Siyambalapitiya said.

He said under the project stations will be refurbished with modern architectural designs and E-ticketing will be introduced.

ADB to give Sri Lanka US$ 3 billion loan for infrastructure development - Finance Minister

May 09, Colombo: The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has promised a loan of US$ 3 billion to Sri Lanka for infrastructure development, Finance Minister, Ravi Karunanayake has said.

The loan agreement has been reached during the 49th Annual Meeting of the Asian Development Bank Governors held in Frankfurt, Germany from 2-5 May, according to a report in state-run Daily News. Sri Lanka's Finance Minister participated in the discussions with the lender at the meeting.

In addition to the US$ 3 billion loan, the ADB will grant US$ 200 million separate aid for the development of Small and Medium Enterprises (SME) sector.

The loan facility given under a concessionary interest rate will be given to Sri Lanka over the next three years Minister Karunanayake said.

The funds will be allocated to some of the main development projects in the country and will be channeled to develop new railways, port development, electricity distribution network, and highways and transportation systems, according to the Minister.

The ADB annually lends Sri Lanka about $ 400 to 500 million, however this loan is in excess to this annual amount.

The lender has also agreed to lower the interest rates on current loans to Sri Lanka, the Finance Minister said.

"The ADB has decided to lower the 7 to 8 percent interest rates on loans and bring it down to 1½ to 2 percent, which is a significant achievement," he said adding that the ADB has pledged to give its fullest support to ensure that the development funds are channeled to Sri Lanka.

He added that during the past eight years, there was an absence of such funds and to see it with renewed vigor means that this money can be spent on development.

The Minister added that Sri Lanka has received the distinctive opportunity to participate in the first round of discussions, where the specialty of Sri Lanka in the Asian region and the changes that have taken place in the country were focused.

MONORAIL PROJECT: PROPOSALS TO BE PRESENTED TO CABINET

BY DARSHANA SANJEEWA

The monorail project between Colombo and Malabe is back on track with the Ministry of Megapolis and Ministry of Transport finalizing the proposal that is to be presented to the Cabinet. Megapolis Authority Director General Lakshman Jayasekara said the proposal was signed by both Ministers and was to be presented to the Cabinet soon. “Once approval is granted we can start construction within nine months and complete the project within three years,” he said.

When the Daily Mirror inquired into the project previously, during the 100-day programme, the Transport Ministry said the project was most likely to be scrapped. Transport Minister at the time Ranjith Madduma Bandara said the project was “too expensive” and that the ministry was considering an electric train service. The project which was to be funded initially by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). The project was aimed to combat the increasing traffic flow in the city and the urban areas. Previous reports stated that USD 55-57 million was the estimated cost per km for the monorail project. Previous media reports stated the rail track would be initiated from Malabe, Talahena, Robert Gunawardena Mawatha, National Hospital, Union Place, World Trade Centre, Colombo Fort and end at Kotahena. In an analysis, JICA said that poor public transportation and road network and the increasing number of vehicles that enter the city were the main cause for rising traffic congestion.

Sri Lanka to build LNG power plant in Kerawalapitiya: Power Ministry



May 06, 2016 (LBO) – Sri Lanka will build a new 300MW Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) power plant in Kerawalapitiya adjoining the existing power plant there, the Ministry of Power and Renewable Energy said.

“The plant will be built on a 10 acre land in Kerawalapitiya utilizing LNG which minimizes environmental pollution,” the ministry said in a statement.

Existing thermal power plants too will be converted to LNG plants where feasible, the statement said.

Minister Ranjith Siyambalapitiya was on a visit to the Kerawalapitiya Power Plant with senior officials of the ministry when he announced this decision.

LNG has become significantly cheaper in the last year, and many countries have begun switching their power plants to LNG.

Sri Lanka too has accepted the value of LNG over alternatives such as coal, the head of the Petroleum Resources Development Secretariat told Lanka Business Online Thursday, which is tied to the country’s plans to utilize its own natural gas resources.

The railway line will run across the Matara-Hambantota main road at Beliatta and Dikwella.

Railway stations will be set up at Kekanadura, Babarenda and Wewrukannala. The railway line will run through two tunnels. The tunnel at Nakuttiya will be the largest railway tunnel in the country, Amaratunga said.
