Former President Ranil Wickremesinghe issued a directive to construct a new pedestrian flyover at Bambalapitiya station few months back before he ended his term. The project remains incomplete, as the old flyover’s stairs lie in ruins on one side of the Marine Drive .
The State Development and Construction Corporation, under the oversight of the Road Development Authority, was tasked with completing the construction within five months of removing the old, dilapidated flyover.
