Kelaniya Flyover to be named after Jeyaraj
The flyover at the Kelaniya rail crossing will be named Jeyaraj Fernandopulle Memorial Flyover in honour of the late Highways and Road Development Minister and Chief Government Whip Jeyaraj Fernandopulle on President Mahinda Rajapaksa's direction, acting Highways and Road Development Minister T.B. Ekanayake said.
He said the ceremony marking the naming of the flyover will be held today to coincide with the Minister's funeral.
Fernandopulle gave priority to the construction of the Kelaniya flyover on the request of Minister Mervyn Silva. The flyover was completed within 60 days, a world record. It was opened last month by President Mahinda Rajapaksa in the presence of Ministers Fernandopulle and Mervyn Silva.
