Lengthy discussions were held regarding all roads damaged in the Nuwara Eliya District due to Cyclone Ditwah, as well as the time required for their repair.
Inquiring from officials about roads that cannot be reopened through normal repairs, the President requested that a report be submitted in this regard.
Officials also pointed out that reports from the National Building Research Organisation (NBRO) should be taken into consideration when constructing certain roads and bridges in the Nuwara Eliya District.
Accordingly, the President instructed officials to release the necessary provisions promptly for the repair of damaged roads, culverts and retaining walls in the Nuwara Eliya District and to take steps to complete all repair work before the end of this year.
