forcebwithu Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 The idea of continuing the underpass, or overpass, to Thepprasit is alive once again. Pattaya locals object to planned Sukhumvit-South roads tunnel Best quote from the article... "Residents claimed, without evidence, that the underground tunnel would flood. The same fears were raised initially about the Central Road tunnel but it has never flooded." Unlike the Klang intersection, where the underpass was built on a high point, the Pattaya Tai to Thepprasit north end entrance/exit is at a low point on Sukhumvit. They've worked unsuccessfully for years to resolve the flooding at that low point. If they can't fix the flooding problem there, what hope do they have of keeping a tunnel dry. All the evidence needed is in this photo. Photo Credit: TPN 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame traffic in the underpass will be restricted to submarines 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
