JTXR Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 I know interprovincial travel is "discouraged" but what kind of "inconvenience" (traffic stops / health checks / delays) are there now, actually, between BKK and Chachoengsao, on motorway or highway via Samut Prakan? Do police do temperature checks? Do they ask if travel is "essential" and want to know the reason? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The word essential is not used in the official Thai instructions. The word used is "discouraged". I am also keen to know what the actual situation is on the roads. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffr2 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 My friend just arrived from Bangkok. No checkpoints on the motorway down to Bang Saray. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soi3eddie Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 I need to go from Bangkok to Pattaya before 29th January. Does anyone know the locations of the checkpoints? Are they just for temperature checks or does one need a permit? If a permit is needed how would a permit be obtained in Bangkok? Will be travelling by motorcycle so cannot use tollway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTXR Posted January 22, 2021 Author Share Posted January 22, 2021 Just to follow up, I made the trip from BKK to Chachoengsao on Tuesday, going on the BKK - Chon Buri New Line and coming back on the Bangna - Chon Buri expressway. No checkpoints or issues at all either way. Maybe would have been different if I'd tried to go on to Chon Buri.... not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
