opalhort Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 I've been searching for a map but only the very standard versions can be found on-line (I know all the routes). Am mostly interested to see exactly where the exit/entry points are and as for exit points if only a left or also a right turn is possible. Right now I'd like to know if coming from Dao Khanong is there an exit (on the 2nd stage) at Sathorn road and is a right turn possible or not. opalhort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the traffic light for that is a brief one. If you do a Google search for "map of Bangkok", and click on the Google map, principal streets are shown in yellow, and expressways (including on and off ramps) are shown in orange. The exit for Sathorn is quite a bit south of Sathorn, the down ramp begins just north of Chan Road. Edited September 22, 2009 by allane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opalhort Posted September 22, 2009 Author Share Posted September 22, 2009 Thanks allane for your info. Yes I did a google map search but it was not 100% clear and of course no indication if a right turn is possible. Destination: Sathorn Soi 13 (our son's school), coming from the Suksawat expressway entrance. Yesterday my wife took our son there, exit at Sathupradit Rd and then up the new Naratiwat Ratcha Nakarin Rd, but traffic was very bad at the Sathorn junction and it took 1hr15min. Your reply came in this morning just after my wife and son left again for the same destination, called her and she followed your advise. Total trip time 35min! Thanks again opalhort 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again opalhort Be advised you can't go into Sathorn 13 after 3pm. Its one-way then. You only can access it from Sathorn 11 and during that time it is a traffic nightmare...

I'll never understand why the ACC (Assumption Commercial College) had the idea to locate the school in such a congested area with only very narrow sois leading to it. What if there is an emergency? opalhort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckenfell Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 I am driving north from Koh Samui to Sisaket and wish to get on the Bangkok expressway towards SARABURI .I have used HWY 9 once before but it was very busy someone suggested that i use the express way. Is it much further on than HWY 9. I expect to arrive at Samut Sakon somewhere around midnight on Sunday.22nd SEPT. Are there any difficulties with this. I would appreciate some advice here as i will be travelling alone and feeling a little nervous driving across Bangkok. Thanking for any help.

I gather you have been fortunate to never have been almost taken out by: a car from this Left road ignoring all Right Turn cars coming up from this road - because they demand they have Right of Way, because they are driving through roundabout, in a straight line...

mosan Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I'm guessing you've have some type of electronic device (smart phone, tablet, laptop, etc.) and have heard of Google Maps. However, if you're electronically challenged, then just ignore my suggestion... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckenfell Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I guess i have to give up , there is no one here who has actually travelled the route which i am inquiring about, especially those who get their kicks by photographing overhead wires, something that is common everyday life to us living here in Thailand.

naboo Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Heading to Sisaket from the south, 4, 35, 34, 304, 359, 33, 348, 24. Via Saraburi means going all the way through Bangkok, skirting along the south is preferable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
