The project is funded by the Government of Spain and the design and the supply of the superstructure are entrusted to; Centunion S. A of Spain who plays the role of main contractor and the design and construction of substructure, on-site fabrication, installation and erection of the steel superstructure are subcontracted to Access Engineering PLC.Rajagiriya town administered by the Kotte Municipal Council is situated about 10km away from the Capital of Colombo. Rajagiriya is identified as one of the heavy-traffic areas in suburbs of the City and three closely situated road intersections at Rajagiriya creates highly saturated continuous traffic congestions towards Battaramulla, Parliament road, Kalapaluwawa, Borella and Nugegoda. More than 75,000 vehicles are plying daily through Rajagiriya inclusive of large number of public transport busses.The proposed flyover which is of 363m length will accommodate four traffic lanes built on two individual decks where width of a lane shall be 3.5m. The flyover will be built following the horizontal alignment of the existing Sri Jayawardenapura Mawatha with two horizontal curvatures of 257m and 128.5m in radius respectively and a vertical alignment with a minimum 5.2m vertical clearance for traffic flow underneath the flyover structure. Once completed, the flyover will take the daily commuters amassed at 4+800KM near Victoria Home up and over the flyover to be connected to the Sri Jayawardenapura Mawatha at 5+570km close to Buthgamuwa Road Junction near Filling Station.Considering the location as one of the most transit areas of the Capital of Colombo, flyover is designed to blend in to the city architecture and future development plan. The preliminary work of the site has by now begun intending to meet the target completion in December 2018. “The project will be progressed under two phases as the development has to be taken forward with minimum disturbances to the commuters and the flow of traffic,” said Jeewaka Dahanayake, Project Manager of the Rajagiriya Flyover.   - <a href="http://www.ft.lk/article/550537/Access-Engineering-gets-contract-for-construction-of-Rajagiriya-flyover" target="_blank">http://www.ft.lk/article/550537/Access-Engineering-gets-contract-for-construction-of-Rajagiriya-flyover</a></blockquote>
