TerryLH Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Take a look in the domestic news forum. I think there's a story with info on what roads are closed. Hopefully by the time your family gets here the highways, at least, will be okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 (edited) Roads are defitely open at this time. Buses from BKK arriving in KKC, seen on my last visit on Saturday. From Suv. by car via 7/9/1/2 is no problem. Problems on highway 1 are further north. Can't tell you wheter there is any problem to get from Suv. to Morchit (?) if one wants to use a bus.

lopburi3 Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 You can not use Highway 1 but can use outer ring road to route 305 to bypass flooded area or use route 304. But as more floodwater's are diverted to the Eastern area these could become impassable at some point so I would high recommend flight to Udon.

bdenner Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Up until yesterday and one way or another bus's from the Mochit bus terminal are making it to Udon and regional centers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigneilo Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 i have just taken the bus from sida, which is about 1hour south of khon kaen, to bangkok and although it took at different route it just added 1 hour to the journey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
