x-pat Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 I live outside of the city in the Mae Jo / San Sai area and I wonder whether there is any form of public transportation here. If I understand correctly, neither Mae Jo road nor San Sai road has been graced with a new bus line. And the infamous rot daeng seldomly venture into this area of the town. So what are our options besides private motorization? Walking? Cheers, X-Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajarn Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 (edited) The reason why the rot daeng (red songthaew) isn't around your area is because they're for in-town (Chiang Mai)... The rot kiew (green songthaew) is for your area, and heading into/out of Chiang Mai... Their parking point in town is at Kad Luang...

Ricardo Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 'On-your-bike' works for me - except it's all-uphill, where-ever I go. There are certainly occassional song-thaews along the Mae-Jo-to-San-Sai road, but you rarely see a blue or red bus out this way, wonder why not. We also have motorbike/side-car taxis in Mae-Jo, one place to find them, is outside the day-market. But yes, it's a country-area, which is why we like it so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
