The New Kelani Bridge utilizes high-quality Japanese technology. The bridge adopts the first extradosed design in Sri Lanka (a bridge in which the main girders are supported by the main towers and diagonal members). The steel box girder is used for the construction of the elevated road so as to build falsework over existing road in a short period of time.
