A Darlington firm has signed a £35 million contract to build hundreds of road bridges in Sri Lanka, BBC reported. Cleveland Bridge will design and build the structures in jungle and rural areas of the country.

The company will replace unreliable rope bridges with permanent steel and concrete crossings.

Graham Hutchinson from Cleveland Bridge was quoted as saying that the project would make a major contribution to the "economic and social development" of Sri Lanka.

The firm has worked on similar projects in the Philippines.
