Far too late for this high season ...

Correct.  Even the dates given are optimistic if the chalong underpass is anything to go by.

 

"The second phase of the project is expected to cost B920.785mn, with construction hoped to start in 2023, Mr Graisorn said."

It would seem that creating new and enlarging existing reservoirs in Phuket would be much more efficient, be done in much less time and still cost less.
Why is the obvious solution usually overlooked?

A bit of investment in dredging existing reservoirs much more efficient solution. 

 

 

Exactly. It's perfect time to do so while the water levels are so low.
