Rimmer Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 City takes over delayed Jomtien sewage pipe project PATTAYA:--Pattaya city workers were called in to complete a badly delayed sewage pipeline project in Jomtien Beach that has residents up in arms. Ten city engineers were on site March 3 on Jomtien Third Road near Siam Commercial Bank to complete work on the sewage tunnel project begun last year to prevent flooding and overflows of smelly waste. PSI Engineering began work near the Grand Jomtien Hotel last year and was supposed to complete the job by now. Now several months delayed, the city stepped in to complete the job after residents complained loudly about ripped up streets and open sewers.

The job is hazardous but the pay is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its repairs to the treated sewage outlet, there are a couple of lite up bouys about 400 m out where the outlet is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unknown as yet, at first glance it would seem the sewer water goes further out when the tide goes out yet comes closer in when the tide comes in. Physics or something?

lou62 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 There was a huge pipe only a few days ago you could see when you drove past. Not the one in the photo. Anyway it's been bad for local business and access to the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwinecheese Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 If we really think positively why would they filter water going to the sea except they are doing their best not to let germs from human be in open water. How nice job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johng Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 In another news item it was reported that the sewage treatment plant is only processing 20% of what it should be so the other 80% goes where ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onemorechang Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Cant wait for the old Watboon to reopen again, those business must have suffered over the time the road was closed for this work. Be great to see how bad the roundabout will be with the boat fleet coming up and down that road, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lou62 Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 ^ Yeah, poor Soi 11, once a quiet little connecting Road between the Beach and 2nd Road and now like the M1. Plenty of boats up there tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
