In a bid to tackle traffic problems in downtown Hua Hin, the municipality has unveiled plans to expand and enhance Chomsin Road.

 

On Thursday (June 1), Mayor Nopporn Wutthikul, along with members of the Hua Hin Municipal Council, engineering staff from the Hua Hin Traffic Police Station, and representatives from the local community, gathered at the project site to discuss and explain the proposed road expansion to the residents and commercial property owners in the area.

 

The main objective of the road expansion project is to alleviate the daily congestion and accommodate the increased volume of traffic, particularly during peak hours and weekends when there is a surge of tourists visiting the area.

 

The project aims to widen the road surface area of Chomsin Road, spanning from the front of Sawang Hua Hin Thammasathan Foundation to the intersection.

Synchronising the two major sets of traffic lights on Phetchkasem Rd would go a long way to alleviating through traffic.

Part of the plan is to add another traffic lane by reducing the width of a pedestrian sidewalk!

Absolutely right, sync up Soi 55 and Soi 61 Petchkasem road traffic lights and the flow would be so much better, currently the biggest traffic jam in Hua Hin.
