webfact Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Krabi flooding swamps homes, collapses road By The Nation Flash floods triggered by heavy downpours swamped homes in Krabi’s Plai Phraya district on Saturday night and damaged public infrastructure. The strong current burst drainpipes under the just-completed Khao Tor-Phanom Road, causing a 50-by-five-metre section to collapse. The gaping hole backed up traffic on what has become a major route to Phuket. As of publication time, with floodwaters subsiding, homeowners had begun cleaning up and local administrative bodies were assessing damage.

Banana7 Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Got to love the Thai engineer design and build. They choose the cheapest design and materials. It looks beautiful when it is first finished but shortly afterwards it's a wreck, just like Pattaya beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
