PHUKET: -- Construction of two u-turn flyovers on Phuket’s main artery, Thepkrasattri Rd, will go ahead, a national Ombudsman confirmed yesterday (Feb 8).

 

Boon Tapanadul, Ombudsman from the national Office of the Ombudsman of Thailand and a former Criminal Court Chief Judge, made the announcement in person in Phuket yesterday.

 

“The construction will go ahead as the flyovers require smaller budgets and will take a shorter time to complete. They will also be more effective in resolving traffic jams,” Mr Boon said.

 

The Ombudsman’s Office of Thailand launched a review of the plans to build the two flyovers after complaints from local residents. 

 

The two flyers, together costing about B200 million, will both be “mid-air U-turns”, allowing traffic heading northbound to return southbound unimpeded, and without causing delays to other motorists.

Nice to see common sense prevail for once.

Now all we need is for them to abandon all the expensive (and profitable) underpasses and replace any that have not yet begun excavating by flyovers...... Where do I think I am living?
