All very nice. Can we eat part of it when we get hungry or do not have money to get organic food? Will this stop the curse of Covid 19 or variants?

Just cause you don’t have vehicle to travel in and don’t understand the situation of the traffics abd how much time people waste a day in the road we can’t help it

ROAD ORIGINALLY PLANNED IN 1951 UNDER 'COLOMBO PLAN'. 70 YEARS TO BUILD... CIRCUMSTANCES AND ENVIRONMENT - HUGE CHANGE SINCE THEN.

Where is the Duplication road extension? We have been waiting for this for 5 decades. Galle road and duplication road could be turned into one way roads up to Moratuwa.

This marine drive could have been avoided if we had a good metro system like London, Dubai and Singapore. Then most people will use metro and little traffic on road. Were all alternatives considered in feasibility study ? Over to you Mr Fawzie, Ex Minister of Highways and architect of marine drive

Good Move. But need proper traffic plan @ connecting road @ Dehiwela Junction. Currently, during the traffic hours, it takes 10 to 15 minutes to put vehicles into Galle Road from Wellawatta.
