PHUKET: -- Phuket City Municipality has urged motorists to avoid key intersections in the Phuket Old Town area as workers carry out the town’s latest tourism-promoting project – the asphalt stamping of images onto the road surfaces to depict each area’s historical influences.

 

The intersections affected by the project are at the intersection of Thepkrasattri Rd and Thalang Rd; Soi Rommanee and Thalang Rd; and at the intersection of on Thalang Rd and Yaowarat Rd, Phuket Town Deputy Mayor Kawee Tansukatanon told The Phuket News today (May 9).

 

“Three different images are being stamped, using a method called asphalt concrete stamping,” he explained.

 

“The intersection on Thepkrasattri Rd and Thalang Rd will have the image of a Chinese junk, marking the beginning of Chinese traders who came to Phuket and travelled along the Klong Bang Yai canal and traded on Thalang Rd.

I was them watching do it last week.
Simple rebar and hammer used to dent the asphalt.
Nice effect once it's painted.
