Trujillo Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 The Maejo Road where it hits the Superhighway (the new underpass) is now closed for turning in the Maya direction and closed heading to Central Festival from the Maya direction (surface road). This is courtesy of the power company. You'd think this major work could have been done when they were totally ripping up and creating the underpass, but no. Makes you wonder who is in charge of planning over there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill97 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Absolutely nothing unusual about the road. Now about the op is another issue. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thailand Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Been here any years, used to road building incompetence. Pinch of salt stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brommers Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 The fact that the PEA work currently involves the Theppanya interchange is merely a small part of the project which has been blocking parts of the frontage road from Khuan Sing all year. Apart from peak times the traffic flow is not badly affected but if possible it is wise to take and alternative route. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trujillo Posted October 8, 2020 Author Share Posted October 8, 2020 "Absolutely nothing unusual about the road. Now about the op is another issue." Nothing unusual about the road other than a giant 3 meter hole and massive re-routing; you hardly noticed, I guess. Don't know what the "other issue," might be; care to explain? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tifino Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 could it have been the tunnelers cut a few underground cables - and hoped no one would notice? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwill Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 In my experience this is pretty normal throughout Thailand. Specially around this time of the year when they are trying to spend all their budget money. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holes in the road and rerouting are common, not unusual. 5 posts above concur. What is unusual is your finding it to be unusual and worthy of comment.

Trujillo Posted October 9, 2020 Author Share Posted October 9, 2020 My point (and you might show me the quote where I said this was "unusual") is that this construction project was just recently finished, in terms of massive roadworks, and yet they couldn't plan competently at the time that they would need to put in giant power cables (and whatever else that is). What I wrote was: "You'd think this major work could have been done when they were totally ripping up and creating the underpass, but no. Makes you wonder who is in charge of planning over there." Again, please show me where I said this was "unusual." And by the way, why flame troll me? What's your point? Everyone here is allowed the freedom to post, within the forum rules, their sentiments on issues. I think you should look at the top of the page and click the following link: "Are you in Thailand and feeling low? Need someone to talk to? Help is at hand."

If you did not consider it unusual why would you start a thread about it. If it was normal no comment is necessary. 40 minutes ago, Trujillo said: "Are you in Thailand and feeling low?
