Sangupiddy Bridge
This new bridge was constructed at a former ferry point
over the Jaffna lagoon on the Navathkuli-Karethivu-Mannar
(A32) road, 17 km from Navathkuli. Owing to this bridge,
the travel distance from Mannar to Jaffna is reduced by
110 km. The seven span steel superstructure bridge (inset)
completed in October 2010, is 288 m long with 7.4 m wide
two lane carriageway. The center span which is the longest
is 40 m. The bridge, constructed for the government of Sri
Lanka, with Road Development Authority as the Engineer,
by Access Engineering /Mabey & Jhonson J.V., cost Rs. 1037
million and took 07 months to complete.

FROM THE EDITOR ...................

Triumph in the war against terrorism, professed as unattainable by many, was secured by Sri Lanka,
two years ago. However, the physical scars left in the most affected parts of the country by a thirty year
long subjugation to terrorism would need more time and effort in the future to heal. Highest in the
list for rehabilitation are the destroyed or neglected infrastructure facilities in these areas of north and
east of the island. Reinstating the transport infrastructure of road and railway networks are the most
important and critical tasks faced by the government, to bring in normalcy and security to the long
suffering people of these regions.
It goes without saying that this endeavour rests solely in the active realms of Engineers. Through the state
engineering organizations of the country, Engineers have taken up this challenge, achieving milestones
at a steady rate. During the past couple of years, the road network in the north and east have improved
VXEVWDQWLDOO\WKRXJKDGYHUVHZHDWKHUFRQGLWLRQVUHVXOWLQJLQUHFRUGRRGVKDYHFUHDWHGKDYRFLQWKHVH
areas during the past year. Not merely being content with rehabilitation of the infrastructure, our
Engineers have gone a step ahead to install improved versions of the same.
The Sanguppidy bridge on the Navathkuli-Karethivu-Mannar (A32) road is a good example of this
trend. Earlier the continuation of this road over the Jaffna lagoon was via a ferry, now upgraded to a
288 m long two lane bridge. Throughout the areas for rehabilitation, as well as the other parts of the
country, Engineers are spearheading many such projects silently. While their commitment and hard
work is beyond question, populace of the country do not get to know of the achievements of these
Engineers as they are realized. Though modesty is a virtue to be admired, wouldnt Engineers be doing
the people of the country a favour by letting them know about their accomplishments?
