Orange Line Construction Promises Progress But Triggers Traffic Turmoil in Bangkok
In a move that promises future convenience but immediate traffic chaos, the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) is set to close and demolish three key flyovers in the city. This is part of the infrastructure work for the expansion of the MRT Orange Line, causing widespread traffic disruptions in some of the city's busiest areas from tomorrow, November 15. The BMA unveiled its plans yesterday to dismantle the well-worn flyovers at the intersections of Pratunam, Ratchathewi, and Sutthawat as part of the expansion project, stretching the Orange Line from Bang Khun Non to Min Buri (Suwinthawong). Bangkok's drivers are being advised to be patient and prepared for inevitable changes and delays as the city braces for this massive transport transformation. The first traffic disruptions will start tomorrow when construction barriers will go up at the Ratchathewi and Pratunam intersections. The Orange Line station construction at these locations will officially begin, led by the Bangkok Expressway and Metro Public Co Ltd (BEM). BEM aims to mitigate traffic upheaval by carrying out staggered road closures and providing a comprehensive timeline of construction. As for the individual flyovers, the demolition of the Ratchathewi and Sutthawat flyovers is penciled in for the 6th and 15th of January respectively. The iconic Pratunam flyover, Thailand’s first built in 1966, is scheduled for demolition in March 2026, followed by a new flyover rise between April and November the same year. But the project isn't just about the flyover facelifts. There's also the small matter of rerouting utilities and digging out space for a new underground tunnel. With the flyovers currently serving as crucial arterial roads, the BMA acknowledges that these closures will have a serious impact on Bangkok’s traffic. In response, they are working diligently with district offices to manage traffic as best as possible. To keep certain roads open during the day, most construction tasks are planned for the night. It's all set to be a test of Thai patience as Bangkok unlocks its future transport potential amidst present upheaval. File photo for reference only -- 2024-11-14 -
