The section from Meerigama to Kurunegala on the Central Expressway, which is section 2 of the development project, will be vested with the public on the 28th of November.
The stretch of road will be vested with the public in an event held under the auspices of President Gotabaya Rajapaksa and Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa.
The section from Meerigama to Kurunegala will consist of four lanes and will also have five interchanges.
The Mirigama-Kurunegala section of the Central Expressway will allow the public to travel the approximately 39.7 km distance between the two points within 25 minutes.
The expressway, which will link Colombo to Kandy, will be very convenient for those who travel to Kandy, Kurunegala, and Dambulla.
The entrance would be in Mirigama, in the Gampaha District, and the exit would be in Kurunegala.
