Tom F Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I want to go from Jomtien to Bang Sare by motorbike via Sukhumvit. The RULES for doing so appear ambiguous, perhaps intentionally so. (See below) Anyone made the trip in the past few days? No Chonburi travel ban, but district still wants Pattaya locals to apply for permission to leave - Pattaya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubascuba3 Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Friends have cycled there with no issues, worse that can happen is they turn you back, unless you have a fever then who knows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champers Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 According to Pattaya 103FM and their vlog in todays news section, no travel checkpoints are now operating in Pattaya due to health and safety fears for those who staff them. People are requested not to travel between provinces and no more than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jai Dee Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Here is a copy of the order to cancel the checkpoint (so I am told). If anyone can translate the order please do and advise the rest of us. There is a degree of uncertainty in the section underlined in red... even Thais are confused by this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drove past there on Monday on way to golf at Plutaluang which is much further on. No sign of any checks southbound nor on the way back and this was before they rescinded the orders above. Lot of roadworks with single lane so take more care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
