Southern Sri Lanka Railway Project

Constructed by CMC under an EPC contract, the project is Sri Lanka’s first modern railway undertaken by a Chinese enterprise in Sri Lanka, and also the first new railway in Sri Lanka in nearly 100 years. Its construction created multiple records in Sri Lanka, including the longest railway bridge (the 1.5-kilometer-long Wattegama Bridge), the highest railway bridge (the 18.2-meter-tall Weralagoda Bridge), the longest railway tunnel (the 615-meter-long Nakuttiya Tunnel), and the biggest and most modern train station (the Beliatta Railway Station).
