Drivers were urged to slow down and drive carefully around roadwork underway on Soi Pornprapanimit 18.
Surin Thonglai, president of the Ban Lang Community, said many accidents have occurred since construction of a new drainage system at the mouth of the street began in October.
Construction is expected to continue through February, so he implored drivers to take it easy when moving through the neighborhood.
Workers are laying reinforced concrete square drainage pipes between the beginning of the soi through the bridge connecting Ban Lang Pa Wan and Pornprapanimit Road.
The entirety of Soi Pornprapanimit 18 has been closed for the work with heavy machinery, a back hoe, and 10-wheeled trucks driving in and out to adjust the surface.
A detour to enter to Ban Lang Community was set up with the entrance at the next soi and runs through Soi Pornprapanimit 5 and on to Nongprue.
