New highways to speed up travel from doorstep of URBAN HEIGHTS in Wattala to Colombo’s commercial centre

Tuesday 27th August 2019, Colombo: Selecting a home is all about affordability and accessibility, two key factors prospective buyers should consider when choosing their homes. Considering the increasing traffic congestion, connectivity is a vital determinant of how successful upcoming properties will be. Most professionals are ensuring their dream home offers easy connectivity to Colombo and the Port City, which could be a source of highly skilled jobs once completed. Keeping this in mind, the ongoing construction of the Outer Circular Highway and the scheduled Port Access Elevated Highway will provide a quick and easy conduit to reach Colombo and the Port City within a short time, despite living in the suburbs.

The new highways will ensure traffic flows smoothly, with no traffic lights and obstacles along the way. The Southern Expressway has halved the time taken to reach the south of Sri Lanka and the Outer Circular Highway and the Port Access Elevated Highway will combine to facilitate traffic at high speeds to access the commercial heart of Sri Lanka from a place like Wattala.

A legendary name in real estate development, Kelsey Homes ensures all its properties offer quick access to commercial hubs. URBAN HEIGHTS – Wattala, Kelsey Homes’ highly anticipated five-storey apartment complex will be ready for homeowners to move in October 2019.
