Noticed on yesterday's ride the rebar work for the footings is now gone. Looks like the project to move the footpath and expand Beach Rd parking will not be going forward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forcebwithu Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Not Pattaya, but pics from today of the Jomtien Beach nourishment project. Looking south and north from opposite of the Chaiyaphruek intersection. Nice example of redneck engineering for hauling boats out of the water. A peak behind the construction barricades of the work currently taking place from soi 12 - 13. Pic looking south from the north end of Dongtan Beach. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJSP Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Yes saw this ( and was inconvenienced as we stayed in Areca Lodge) and for the life of me I don’t understand why they didn’t do all this over the long covid period when the town was empty of customers 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glasseye Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Was there in late July for a few days. Just as the pile drivers were slamming in the piles on 2nd Rd. (near the Soi 13 area, where is of course happened to be staying at the time). The noise was incredibly loud (especially as you passed by on baht bus, stuck in traffic in the scorching heat). I thought to myself they are never going to get that finished. To make matters worse. They were also tearing the shit out of Soi 15 (behind The Avenue), the road was decimated. Soi 15 is a main cut through both in vehicle and on foot. I know eventually they will get caught up with it all, but during that time it left a real sour taste in my mouth. Did not enjoy myself there one bit. Just wanted to get out of there. I hope things are improved by next visit. I think I will stay in Jomtien for the next one. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, omelettes and breaking eggs.... i've worked in construction since 1986 and i have to appreciate these guys working in urban areas with a low accident rate. But the noise from sheet piling will be there unless you spend more money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How are new builds (like the one next to Nature Hotel) still getting EIA...? How did any multistory condo built in the last decade get issued with an EIA Certificate...? We all know and accept day to day corruption but it is the big boys that are ruining our city.... Think about it ....Where does all the shit go just in The Base and multiply it by how many condos ....??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toy Boy Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Driving from Jomtien to Suk along Thepprasit has been awful for at least a year due to the drainage works. Just as they seem to be drawing to a close, they're now started digging up the other side of the road around Soi's 7 to 11, and now traffic going from Suk to Jomtien is at a standstill too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tko Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Yeah, we tried to take a friend to Route 66 on the dark side, but the road under the overpass is all dug up and we couldn't reach it. Went to outback instead. Muang Rayong and Ban Chang are all dug up as well. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
