State transport agencies seek Bt600 billion for 2022

Transport Minister Saksayam Chidchob

 

State transport agencies have asked the Transport Ministry for more than Bt600 billion for the 2022 fiscal year.

 

Meanwhile, Transport Minister Saksayam Chidchob said he has instructed the agencies to prioritise their projects under this budget and focus on those that have passed the environmental impact assessment.

 

The Highways Department has reportedly asked for Bt360 billion, the largest share, of which Bt80 billion will be spent on setting rubber barriers on roads.

 

Saksayam has also instructed the agencies to complete projects under the 2021 budget by next August, one month ahead of the original schedule, as part of an effort to accelerate budget spending to revive the subdued economy.

 

The minister said state transport agencies have already disbursed 90 per cent of the 2020 fiscal year budget, with 33 contracts still waiting to be executed.

Maybe they pay off the Hopewell case with some of this. Be easier than paying the interest on the oredered settlement.
