The Kandy–Colombo main road has been temporarily closed once again from the Pahala Kadugannawa area.
Police said vehicle movement is restricted between Kadugannawa town and Ganetenne, though vehicles transporting essential supplies and those involved in relief efforts will be allowed to pass.
Officials from the Road Development Authority (RDA) are currently inspecting the area.
The Pahala Kadugannawa section was previously reopened yesterday for limited traffic with vehicle movement permitted between 6 a.m. and 9 p.m. (Newswire)
