As the irst step to Main Line To supplement the Monorail network and the Railway improve public transport services, a BRT system will be installed in Galle Corridor, Kandy Corridor, and Baseline Monorail system will be installed in the Malabe Corridor network, BRT is proposed to be installed in the Goal Kadawatha Road where the BRT system can be installed physically with suficient road width and potential public transport where signiicant passenger demand is observed but the Road Corridor, Base Line Road and its extension, Kandy passenger demands. In addition, in Horana corridor and Negombo corridor, where it is dificult to install BRT, a majority of people use private passenger cars. Wattala Wattala Road and the proposed Middle Ring Road. Kandy Corridor Bus Priority System will be introduced and connected with the BRT network, monorail network, and the existing Kelaniya railway. This can realise an integrated urban public transport network even in the early stages. In order to make Cross Secon with Dedicated Bus Lanes the public transport system more attractive and effective for use, a Multimodal Transport Hub (MmTH) at 29.0m Kelaniya Fort MmTH Fort/Pettah will be built to ensure a smooth transfer to various transport modes and to provide good access to Kaduwela the urban centre.

  • CHAPTER 4 Perspective of the Colombo Metropolitan Area 4.1 Identification of the Colombo Metropolitan Area
    Urban Transport System Development Project for Colombo Metropolitan Region and Suburbs CoMTrans UrbanTransport Master Plan Final Report CHAPTER 4 Perspective of the Colombo Metropolitan Area 4.1 Identification of the Colombo Metropolitan Area 4.1.1 Definition The Western Province is the most developed province in Sri Lanka and is where the administrative functions and economic activities are concentrated. At the same time, forestry and agricultural lands still remain, mainly in the eastern and south-eastern parts of the province. And also, there are some local urban centres which are less dependent on Colombo. These areas have less relation with the centre of Colombo. The Colombo Metropolitan Area is defined in order to analyse and assess future transport demands and formulate a master plan. For this purpose, Colombo Metropolitan Area is defined by: A) areas that are already urbanised and those to be urbanised by 2035, and B) areas that are dependent on Colombo. In an urbanised area, urban activities, which are mainly commercial and business activities, are active and it is assumed that demand for transport is high. People living in areas dependent on Colombo area assumed to travel to Colombo by some transport measures. 4.1.2 Factors to Consider for Future Urban Structures In order to identify the CMA, the following factors are considered. These factors will also define the urban structure, which is described in Section 4.3. An effective transport network will be proposed based on the urban structure as well as the traffic demand. At the same time, the new transport network proposed will affect the urban structure and lead to urban development.

  • Development of a Thermal Risk Map Case Study: Kelaniya City of Sri Lanka
    DEVELOPMENT OF A THERMAL RISK MAP CASE STUDY: KELANIYA CITY OF SRI LANKA Samarawickrama UI1, Manjula Ranagalage2, MKDK Piyaratne1 1Computer Unit, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Ruhuna Email: [email protected], [email protected] 2Department of Environmental Management, Rajarata University of Sri Lanka Email: [email protected] KEY WORDS: Heat island, Thermal risk, Heat stress ABSTRACT: The land surface temperature in city areas is increased compared to the adjacent rural areas as a result of industrialization and urbanization. This phenomenon is known as the formation of heat island. In the context of population density, Kelaniya is the second largest Divisional Secretariat (DS) division next to Colombo. Main access to Colombo from Kandy is laid across Kelaniya in which thousands of vehicles travel through. Therefore, Kelaniya is subjected to heat stress. Since this will cause to thermal discomfort, cooling devices are additionally driven by increasing the energy demand. The main Objective of this study is to develop thermal risk map for Kelaniya. Thermal band(s) of the Landsat images were used to derive LST. Derived temperature values were normalized, extracted the areas which are greater than 0.6 as heat islands and combined. According to the status of heat islands in the combined image, a map on the persistence of heat islands was derived. Areas which existed as heat islands in all three years, at least one year or none and other were considered as high, low and moderate thermal risk areas respectively. The areas with high thermal risk were extracted, intersected with GramaNiladhari (GN) divisions of Kelaniya and again classified into three risk classes as high, moderate and low.
