Officials work to reopen blocked road in Kaeng Krachan national park

National park officials, aided by a tractor, have been trying to reopen the Ban Krang-Panoen Thung mountain road, which has been blocked by mudslides and fallen trees.

A report, from the chief of Kaeng Krachan national park in Phetchaburi province, said that heavy rains over the past several days caused mudslides at several points between kilometer markers 28 and 29 of Bang Krang-Panoen Thung road. Several large uprooted trees blocked the road, making it passable only by motorcycles or on foot.

Park officials based at Panoen Thung, a popular tourist attraction where visitors can view a sea of clouds during cold season, have been cut off from the outside world and have been relying on food supplies sent to them by motorcyclists.
