The Tak Provincial Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Office has reported significant developments concerning the overflowing Wang River, which has eroded a vital bridge in the area. The bridge over the Wang River, located in Ban Tha Phai, Moo 3, in the Sam Ngao district, has been severely damaged due to the high water levels, prompting immediate action from local authorities.

 

On October 5, the Kamphaeng Phet Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Centre (Region 8 dispatched a team to install a Bailey bridge, a temporary solution to restore access for residents. Installation work began on October 4, and is currently in progress. The Bailey bridge measures approximately 51 metres in length and is designed to support a maximum load of 12 tons.

 

 


Authorities anticipate that the bridge will be completed and ready for public use by Monday, October 7. This temporary structure aims to ensure continued mobility for the local population until a permanent solution can be implemented.
