00:12 Part of the much awaited upcoming coastal road project that is estimated to be done by May of 2022.
00:18 Now talking about the twin tunnel itself, the highlight here is that it's made below the sea level of about 20 to 25 meters
00:25 and it's supposedly to cut the travel time between beach Kandy to Marine Drive.
00:30 Now let's take a drive around and see how much does it actually help you to save your travel time as well.

00:44 This was quite a drive. It took us about 5 minutes to reach the other side through the tunnel
00:50 which has been taking you about 30 to 40 minutes by road.
00:54 We spoke to BMC's executive engineer to understand the highlights and the ventilation system that has been used inside the tunnel.
