The transport sector how it really works!
� Passengers• Buses Carry 68% (good network, adequate supply but poor
quality, poor regulation & institutional capacity, private sector showing monopolistic behaviour, State sector poor management & dominated by trade unions)
• Railways Carry 05% (good network, inadequate rolling stock, track needs re-investment, poor commercial orientation, track needs re-investment, poor commercial orientation, unreliable due to disruption by trade union actions)
• Private Vehicles Carry 26% (rapid growth, road investment not keeping pace, low speeds & congestion, high energy consumption, accidents & pollution levels a concern, no plan to manage private vehicle growth)
� Goods__________________________________ • Trucks Carry 97% (largely informal sector, low loads, high
over loadings, low cost recovery and high external costs)
• Railways Carry 2% (only few commodities to few destinations, not competitive on speed and where double handling occurs.

Predictions for the next decade………..
� Road congestion will increase, travel times will increase
� As a result, number of people coming to the city will reduce,
� A number of business establishments will migrate to suburbs or become uncompetitive
� congestion will remain at a dynamic equilibrium
� Colombo will become disfunctional gradually as an effective commercial capital with no planned alternate to take its place.
