He inspected the work on the second section of the canal park from Sathon Road to Naradhiwas Rajanagarindra 7 Road. The section stretches on a distance of 200 meters and will comprise an activity field, a skywalk and an area connecting to Bangkok’s Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system.

 

The construction of the second section was 50% completed and the canal park could open on Dec 25, the governor said.

January 1st Headline. New Year celebration leads to car in park canal !

 

Also can't help but think with it being sandwiched between two busy roads it will be one of the most unhealthy places to visit

Yeah...it's a travesty...anyway that canal in the middle of the road lined with bougenvillea flowers was always pretty nice view from the BTS and added ambiance to the area....mucking it up with a goofy looking Disney inspired water park...what were they thinking ?

Another one smart movement. Rising seas will erase Bangkok by 2050… Including canals.

It'll look fantastic when it's full of plastic, another unsightly stink-hole when the suns up in the high 30's
