Collapsed pedestrian overpass at Egoda Uyana railway station, obstructing railway tracks

The pedestrian overpass at the Egoda Uyana railway station collapsed last night (March 26).

As a result, the railway route from Maradana to Galle has been obstructed.

The bridge collapsed shortly after a train had passed toward Galle.

No passengers were injured in the collapse, but debris has fallen onto the railway tracks.

Railway workers have been urgently summoned to clear the tracks.
