Big bridge: Lane closures begin at Lat Phrao intersection

Looking south toward Lat Phrao intersection, a northbound lane is closed Monday.

 

BANGKOK — Construction of a new extension linking two elevated rail lines over one of Bangkok’s busiest crossroads took off Monday morning, with impacts on road traffic there likely for the next year and a half.

 

Starting this morning, one lane was closed to traffic for the construction of 26-meter high pylons that will carry the tracks over the tangle of roads and expressways at Lat Phrao intersection. While only the innermost northbound lane just north of the junction is closed for now, police said others would be out of service as the project moves forward.
