What allowances did they make for the increase in traffic something of this scale would cause? Off street taxi/songtaew parking? Shuttle buses? An new overpass bridge instead of existing u-turns? Or?

glamont002 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 A total traffic disaster.... Now low season and took 20 minutes to pass this crap mall on main road on Monday!!!! In high season it will make BKK traffic look like a race way compared to downtown HH. Who in their right mind would have allowed this to be built? Oh yes, stupid question....

In Pattaya there is the Riviera Resort Pattaya, The Riviera Wangamat, The Riviera Jomtien. But unlike the French Riviera, neither Pattaya or Hua Hin will have a casino.

Nor do they have Albert, Charlene and the twins, not to forget Caroline and Steff. The Cote d'Azur (Riviera is English) is absolutely stunningly beautiful. Hua Hin and Pattaya are nothing in comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisY1 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Riviera of the East????.....It's just a shopping mall.! And as usual, traffic management and parking are way down the list of the town planners criteria....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
