webfact Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Pattaya — Pattaya City has successfully completed its endeavor to enhance the landscape of the world-famous Pattaya Walking Street by removing all traffic-obstructive overhead signs. The low-hanging signs had been a problem on Walking Street for a long time, said Pattaya City officials, as they not only displeased tourists visually but also posed obstacles for fire trucks and emergency vehicles. In response to this challenge, the city had been diligently working over the past few months to address and rectify the situation.
