Sri Lanka, April 29 -- The delay in constructing the flyover from Baladaksha Mawatha to Sir Chittampalam A Gardiner Mawatha near the Kompannavidiya Police Station has resulted in over Rs. 400 million in late fees to contractors.

This is according to Transport Minister Bimal Rathnayake, who was on an inspection visit to the site.

The Minister stated that the delay is costing Rs. 500,000 per day.

He attributed the two-year delay to issues with relocating police housing on the site.
