Colombo, Oct. 27 (Daily Mirror) - Nuwara Eliya District Member of Parliament Manjula Suraveeraarachchi inspected the landslide-affected Watawala Railway Station today (27), following heavy rainfall in the area.
The station’s main building sustained severe damage after a large section of the adjoining hillside collapsed.
The Railway Department has assigned the reconstruction of the collapsed main building to the Sri Lanka Army Corps of Engineers.
Meanwhile, the Railway Department’s Engineering Division has commenced work to temporarily convert the station’s goods shed into a functioning railway station to maintain operations while reconstruction work is carried out.
