Hon. Danushka Ranganath raised concerns about the poor condition of a road between the Agalawatta and Bulathsinhala electorates, noting its importance for access to tourist sites such as Pahiyangala and Makeli Ella. He said overgrowth and road conditions had led to accidents, including a fatal SLTB bus accident, and asked where the road vesting process had stalled and why a required CEB-related payment had not been made.

¶ 01 This question was raised due to the issues on this road. Users face severe difficulties. This road straddles the borders of Agalawatta and Bulathsinhala electorates, and serves tourist attractions like Pahiyangala and Makeli Ella. A section has become overgrown and many accidents have occurred; an SLTB bus met with an accident resulting in a fatality. People of the area suffer. Where has the vesting process stalled? We understand the CEB has to pay certain fees related to vesting. Why has that payment stopped?
