Night Races Will Affect Roads
The Colombo Municipal Council (CMC) says preparations for the night races scheduled to be held in Colombo on Friday have affected the city’s road network.
Mayor A. J. M Muzammil told The Sunday Leader that tar has been placed on some roads covering the gullies through which the road drainage system operates.
He said that as a result the CMC will not be able to find the gullies to clean and maintain them.
Muzammil said that approval to hold the night races in Colombo had been obtained by the organizers from the previous CMC administration. However he said that the previous CMC administration had failed to ensure the road network is not affected as a result of the night race. (ISA)
