1 Provincial Profile

1.1 Geographic and Demographic

1.1.1 Western Province The Western Province (WP), along the western seaboard of Sri Lanka is bordered by the Sothern, North Western and Sabaragamuwa provinces. It has three administrative districts i.e. Colombo, Gampaha and Kalutara and 33 divisional secretariats. Out of Sri Lankan's urban population, 54.6% reside in Colombo district, while Gampaha and Kalutara accounts for 14.6% and 10.6% urban population. Colombo district is considered to be the most urbanized district in Sri Lanka, while the other two districts carry higher percentage of rural population. Colombo city is considered to be the centre of the economy and hence the busiest city in Sri Lanka. Government offices, private offices, factories, hospitals, hotels, schools and the harbor located within the Colombo city generates higher travel demand towards the city core.

Since the province is located in the low-country wet zone, it experiences between 1,500 to 2,000 mm of annual rainfall, most of which can be expected to occur during the north-west monsoon period from May to September. Generally a flat terrain prevails across most parts of the province. The province is considered an agricultural based rural area though it resides higher urban population.

The Western Province extends over 3,684 sq km (5.62% of the land surface of Sri Lanka) with a population of 5,381,197 (28.67% of the country) thus becoming the smallest in terms of the area and the highest in terms of the population leading to the highest population density of 1460.7 persons/sq km among Sri Lanka's nine provinces. Provincial ethnic composition is made up of 84.2% Sinhalese, 7.2% Tamils, 7.0% Moor and others. Its religious profile makes it predominantly 73.3% Buddhist, 5.1% Hindu with 8.2% Islam and others.
