Is the footbridge to Colombo Port City open at night?
1 Answer from travellers
The pedestrian access to the Port City public gallery and bridge is generally open until 10:00 PM. It is very well lit and monitored by security, making it perfectly safe for a night walk. The view of the Colombo financial district lights reflecting on the marina is one of the best in the city. Just be aware that some of the beach park sections might have earlier closing times.

Driver claims the meter is broken and quotes an inflated flat rate. Common on arrival at airport or railway stations when tourists are tired and disoriented.
Drivers wearing official-looking uniforms claim to be "government-approved" and charge 3-5x normal rates. They may have fake badges or ID cards.
Women with babies approach asking you to buy milk powder at a nearby shop (not cash). The shop is run by accomplices and charges 5-10x normal price.
