janclaes47 Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Noticed that since a few days the whole left side of pattaya klang, from big c extra towards sukhumvit is now prohibited to park. Not sure what they have in mind with that, since it doesn't improve traffic flow at all, so I guess it's pure greed that plays here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Isn't it to allow more space during construction work (cable laying)? Until last week I was in P. and drove on the bike there. I remember bottlenecks by these works in the center of the driveway. That it does not improve flow can be put on the "capabilities"/"discipline" of the local drivers?

KhunBENQ Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Whatever the works were, I do not have hallucinations yet. Lot of works on the center of Pattaya Klang driveway last week. Right lane traffic had to move over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You definitely have halicunations, because there are no works since months, at least not between third road and sukhumvit, You probably confused with Pattaya Nua where tesco is, and where they are building terminal 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drove up there from third to Suk multiple times last week and again this morning - two lots of narrowed stretches with manhole covers up and what looked like cable being pulled through. Nua has a separate load of works going on as do other areas. Suggest you apologise to @KhunBENQ ............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of hallucinations between third road up to BigC Extra and further on to Harbor Mall. I can't swear what kind of work it was, but big trucks and machinery involved at "holes" in the center of the road. A whole lane blocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janclaes47 Posted June 25, 2018 Author Share Posted June 25, 2018 I drive there every day of the week and noticed no works at all. Maybe I'm blind, but I guess i wouldn't be able to drive a car then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Do you drive at 8 to 10 in the morning like me? Well possible that they clean up after a certain shift (and close the manholes hopefully). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digbeth Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 The cable laying that seem to be finished months ago were just the conduits. This afternoon 2 PM they had big reel of cable on a truck feeding into hole in the ground in front of Foodland, everything was cleaned up and they were gone in about couple of hours, so there might still be sporadic work around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
