Polduwa Bridge, Sri Lanka

In partnership with Access Engineering PLC, Mabey Bridge embarked on the reconstruction of the Polduwa bridge in August 2013. The chosen system was the Mabey Composite Atlas, which features a steel superstructure incorporating a traditional reinforced concrete deck resulting in a highly sturdy solution suited to both urban and rural applications. In keeping with the grandeur of the Parliament building, Polduwa bridge incorporates two architectural arches, which has made the structure a landmark in its own right.
The Polduwa bridge was opened 5th September 2014 by the Honourable Basil Rajapaksa, Minister of Economic Development. The bridge represents a significant milestone in the essential redevelopment of the road network and transport system in Sri Lanka and is in keeping with the President’s Vision for the Future.
