sgunn65 Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 How do you drive to the airport from Kanchaniburi without having to go through Bangkok? Is it possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEREK-C Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Kan Win, i would be intersested in your routes. I have been trying to find out if the southern sextion of the outer ring road is complete (A9). On my maps I can't see if there is a bricdge occross the river. I would like to avoid the Dao Khanog Bang Na route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AjarnP Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 My favourite route is to miss the capital altogether by using this route: Leave K'buri and head east on ??? there's a turning not far away that leads to Don Tum, from Don Tum you go to Lad Lum Keaw, and direct into pathumthani or round the western ringroad to the Saraburi road. From there its a simple straight line along the eastern ringroad to the new airport. For at least the first 60% of the trip the roads are only single carriageway so be careful especially if driving at night Bon voyage AjarnP p.s. it used to get very potholed during the rains years ago but I don't know about now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you get to Pathum you can get on the outer ring (route 9 IIRC) and go all the way around to the expressway east of BKK or cut the corner by going through Rangsit (traffic) and join the 9 heading south. K'buri - Pathum is a bit variable, there's a lot of widening work going on and some bits are single lane but generally a fast'ish road.

Nightime lorry drivers use that stretch of the ring road as a free parking space Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although some sections are single carriage way it'is being upgraded now plus is still a route that's light on traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
