VictorMeldrewBKK Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Sukhumvit closed between soi 11 and 15 due to Saturdays construction crane crashing into building. Traffic being redirected up soi 11 to go around the block causing some hold up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As always its nowhere near as bad as the news make out, i had to walk through the red shirt camp with a 3 day old baby to take her home from the hospital last week so im sure that you will be cool...

jaiyenyen Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 I saw signs at the BTS station saying that The BTS is only running between 10am-8pm. I'm not sure if that's still the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfchandler Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 (edited) About a week ago, BTS announced that their entire system will be closing early every day at 8 pm....until further notice.... because of the Red Shirt protests and the attack on Saladaeng Station.... BTS is opening at the regular time, not late, at 6 am... The crane incident didn't/hasn't had any impact on BTS service.... The MRT subway is currently running regular, full hours...except for the Silom Station, which is closing early, at 8 pm I believe...

kurnell Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Yes, a big crane. Much damage I wonder? Someone must have gotten a shock in the upstairs rooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
