Pdavies99 Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 On Monday afternoon 3rd March at Pattaya City Hall, Khun Itipon, the Mayor of Pattaya chaired a meeting which discussed proposals to extend the width of Pattaya Beach Road. An 18 mtr (54ft) extension to the width of the road has been proposed which will allow for up to two more lanes of traffic and may allow the road to become a two way four lane road in the future.

wileycoyote Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 It's taken ages to get the beach walkway as a tourist walkway ,are they now going to dig it up ,to extend the road Sheer inconceivable madness ! Are they getting financed by the Filipino & Bali Tourist Boards ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barnsleyman Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Be very interested to see how they are going to acheive that, cant even make up their minds if 2nd road should be one way, two way, this way or that!!! I agree with you, now I think the authorities should consider building a footbridge outside the new Central Shopping Plaza.It was bad enough crossing the road, now it's an absolute nightmare with the increased traffic.

PattayaParent Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Who said anything about building on the beach side? They can just tear down all the beer bars that are on the opposite side and easily create enough space for a superhighway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LennyW Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 I seem to remember this idea being touted a couple of years ago, at that time also included was a road around the outside (seaside) of walking street, is this a ressurection of the same plans or what??

denny1000 Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Why the bother to even discuss this? It ain't like back home is it? So why even give a thought to the next idea the city comes up with. Relax blokes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moo9 Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Real BS this idea! Don't they have more important things to think of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattayaParent Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 (edited) Real BS this idea!Don't they have more important things to think of? They've already finished with the important thinking, making Second Road 2 way from Klang to North, now they have to justify their salary by comin up with more bright ideas.

WinnieTheKhwai Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 (edited) Could be worse, they could have proposed an elevated highway directly above the existing road. Kind of like Hong Kong.
