  • 10 3.0. INFERENCES and ANALYSIS the Rail Travel in the Coastal Belt
    10 3.0. INFERENCES AND ANALYSIS The rail travel in the Coastal belt from Colombo to Matara is about 32% of the total passenger traffic. The congestion on the roads is very heavy in the suburbs of Colombo and within the City limits. The study on change of patterns and present trends in the interaction of public transport, revealed the problems, deficiencies and limitations encountered and these have been analysed in the following paragraphs. 3.1 Existing Traffic The existing traffic vehicular volumes over the A2 highway varies with the distance from Colombo. From the studies done for the Southern transport corridor project the following pattern is observed, fig.3.1(a) (Appendix 11). (a) Over 40,000 v.p.d. on the approaches to Colombo (bi Up to 15,000 v.p.d. as far as Kalutara {cL Between 6500 and 10,000 v.p.d. as far as Galle. (di Around 4500 - 5000 v.p.d. beyond Galle. It is also noted that higher volumes are observed locally in the vicinity of urban areas, fig 3.1(b) (Appendix 11). The overall journey time to Matara for a car is 3 hr. 45 min while for express bus is 4 hrs. 30 min. The average rural road speed of around 40 kph up to Aluthgama and 50-60 kph beyond is observed however in urban areas such as Panadura, Aluthgama, Ambalangoda, Hikkaduwa and Galle the speed is reduced further. In some of these towns such as, Panadura, Ambalangoda, and Galle although by passes have been constructed, their purposes have been since lost, due to permitting commercial activities to flourish on either side.
