By The Nation

 

The Bangkok Council on Tuesday requested a Bt2.3 billion budget from the government for the construction of nine projects to help resolve the capital’s notorious traffic problems.

 

Pol Maj Gen Prasopchok Prommool, a member of the council and chairman of the panel tasked with considering the ways to resolve the traffic problems, proposed the projects that could be carried out immediately providing that the government approves financial support.

 

The nine projects included the construction of bridge across Chao Phrya river near Kiak Kai intersection and a tunnel underneath Ratchada and Ratchaphruek roads.

On the main bottlenecks like the roads to the shopping mails build underground so the traffic will move again 

 

Central downtown needs it as does Paragon 

If you have a little chump change left over don't forget Chiang Mai just asking.
