Navy clear blockage under Wakwella bridge
The Sri Lanka Navy on 29th September 2023 ensured the free flow of water in the Gin River by clearing the blockage under the Wakwella Bridge in Galle.
Following heavy rains, tree trunks, branches and other debris carried by raging waters of the Gin River had collected under the Wakwella Bridge, hampering the smooth flow of river water. Alerted of these developments, the Southern Naval Command cleared the blockage beneath the bridge, averting possible flooding of the area.
