COLOMBO, Jan 2 (Reuters) - A consortium led by state-run China Harbour Engineering Company Ltd will invest $1 billion to build three 60-storey office towers on reclaimed land of the Port City development in Sri Lanka's capital, a government minister said on Tuesday.

The $1.4 billion development of Port City, a project of China Communication Construction Company (CCCC), the parent company of CHEC, began in late 2016 as part of Beijing's ambitious plans to create a modern-day "Silk Road" across Asia.

"The investment will be $1 billion and we expect to sign the agreements this month in Beijing."

CHEC officials were not immediately available for comment.

Sri Lanka is preparing legislation with tax incentives to lure investment to the 269-hectare (665-acre) Port City tract.

About 60 percent of its total area is reclaimed land from the sea in the commercial heart of Colombo, adjacent to the main port and the historic Galle Face Green park. The rest is expected to be reclaimed by June 2019.

CHEC Port City Colombo (Pvt) Ltd, the Sri Lanka company handling the project for CCCC, aims to deliver the first site for construction by the end of 2018.
