Cleanup resumes at
Naklua’s Nok Yang canal
Before…
Surasak Huasoon
For the second time in two months, Pattaya engineers returned to
Naklua’s No Yang canal to clear it of vegetation and debris to improve
flood control.
Deputy Mayor Verawat Khakhay led a team of Sanitation, Engineering,
Drainage System and Water Quality departments staffers to Sukhumvit Soi
23 Sept. 19 with a backhoe to scrape out the hyacinth that had overgrown
the waterway and had become fully blocked by garbage.
The deputy mayor also thanked workers from the nearby Toyota Thai Center
and local residents who volunteered to clean up land around the canal.
The canal is one of Pattaya’s many natural waterways to catch storm
runoff and carry it to the sea.
Crews started work on the canal July 17, supposedly to clear out two
kilometers of waterway over two weeks.
… and after.
