92 of 97 cyclone-damaged sections of Kandy railway line restored ...
On May 1, 2026 Prasanna Gunasena Railway Deputy Minister of Transport Prasanna Guansena says renovation work has been completed at 92 of the 97 sections of the Kandy main railway line that were destroyed by Cyclone Ditwah. Following an inspection of the damaged line, the Deputy Minister noted that only five sites remain to be repaired. “These five locations are the worst affected, due to landslides, land subsidence, and broken tracks. It is difficult for the Railway Department alone to address this,” he said. Guansena added that contracts have been awarded for reconstruction at the five sites. He further expressed hope that train services on the Kandy line, from Colombo Fort via Kadugannawa and Peradeniya, will resume within the year as targeted by the Ministry of Transport.
