make some car parks on the outskirts.

Such as where?  Suggestions please!

There are definitely car parks well beyond On Nut, but not thanks to Tesco.

Will EV cars pay for this congestion charge!

😂😂

If they follow London as an example yes it a congestion charge for the central area not a pollution charge  London has a pollution charge on top of the congestion charge where I believe EVs are exempt.

I've tried the airport way, takes ages to find a parking spot in short term parking, then 250 baht for the privilege.

 

I just looked at the Samrong option, driving time plus train journey actually adds time to my journey even in traffic. 20 baht is neither here or there but a 50 baht congestion charge over a 70 baht parking fee......

 

Looks like i will be sticking to the car for the near future.

 

Appreciate the tips though, never really looked at it this closely.

Ultimately - this is why we nearly always just drive - the added time at each end getting to & from the BTS stations make it not worth it for us…

We all know  traffic is bad in bkk and other areas. a charge is allready in place for motorway traffic which a taxi passes onto the customer or car owner pays for a quicker drive time.I think they see what happens in the west and other cities. as a money earning scheme like london or paris and parking permits are easy money for who is in control of the city.Ask a londoner what they think of the mayor and they will tell u quickly .Only the cyclist or a certain group think khan is good
