With highway solarisation, it will be like Christmas every day of the year for RDA 

 



Christmas Day revenue

Thursday, 5 January 2017

There was a news item online that the Road Development Authority recorded revenue of Rs. 18.185 million from the Southern Expressway on 25 December and another Rs. 9.55 million from Katunayake Expressway on 23 December.

RDA Director S. Opanayake is very happy about the collections and he comments that this is the highest revenue in the last five years. He mentions that the daily traffic is about 43,000 vehicles on the Southern Expressway, bringing in Rs. 11.5 million, while on the Katunayake Expressway it is 24,000 vehicles bringing in Rs. 6.5 million revenue. He is happy about both the increase in vehicles patronising the highways and reduction in accidents due to more disciplined driving.
