Pamadura-Kalutara dual rauway track opened [October 28 2008]

The new dual railway track between Panadura and Kalutara was opened today. The two new lines which replace the old two-way single track, will greatly reduce train delays and improve traffic efficiency along the coast line.

The two railway lines were constructed in two stages – from Panadura to Wadduwa under stage one and from Wadduwa to Kalutara under stage two. Railway Department sources said they are planning similar projects along the Main line and Puttlam line too.
