Rimmer Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 City-wide roadwork leaves Pattaya traffic in gridlock PATTAYA:--Citywide roadwork has Pattaya residents up in arms with locals claiming city hall is making bad traffic even worse due to poor planning. From the southern end of Beach Road to Second Road near Central Road to Sukhumvit Road in Naklua roads have been dug up, holes left with barriers and lanes closed in a patchwork of projects that leaves no area free of congestion. Residents say Pattaya officials should limit roadwork to a single zone at a time and not wreck the entire traffic grid simultaneously. City hall countered that it received budgets for various projects from laying drainage pipes to burying electricity lines and that the budgets must be spent. -- PATTAYA MAIL 2019-08-22— Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

champers Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Best to get things done in low season when there is no-one here, though apparently there won't be anyone here in high season either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robjohns458 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Better now than when the tourist season really picks up. No pain no gain. Might as well do it relatively quickly instead of spreading out the pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
