PHUKET:-- Residents living near the airport runway road have called for authorities to explain when work on long-term measures to resolve further landslides blocking the road will begin.

 

The road was closed for safety on Aug 31 after heavy rain caused a dangerous landslide that smothered the busy back road in earth and fallen trees.

 

Frustrated with no signs of any work to redress the problem, residents have posted a sign on one of the concrete barriers that now block the road.

 

The sign reads: “How many more deaths before the work begins”.

 

The question relates to the death of 25-year-old Saran Nantabut, from Phang Nga, who died after slamming his motorbike into the barriers last Thursday (Nov 24).

How many more people have to die? Well I guess as many as it takes for people to realize that they need proper lights+brakes and drive at reasonable speeds in order to not just slam head-on into a wall. Oh and don't forget to wear a helmet, that might help too...

Gaining popularity in local social media circles are Facebook posts by local resident Sulaimarn Kaewngamdee. The posts include photos and videos of people driving cars, pickup trucks and motorbikes around some the barriers, and straight past other barriers that have been moved to allow vehicles through.

 

“Time has passed and nothing is being done and this is causing distress to local people who have to use a detour to get home. Since the road has been closed there have been many accidents causing injury and most recently death,” Mr Sulaimarn wrote

 

Here you have the real issue. People are just plain lazy (not taking the safe detour) and stupid (going around and moving the barriers which have been errected for a reason).
