All but one lane of Soi Nernplubwan will close Sept. 20 as the Provincial Electricity Authority changes equipment and utility poles.
Nongprue Mayor Winai Inpitak said Sept. 16 that the work will span two kilometers from the train tracks to Nong Samor Health Promotion Hospital. Only one lane will be open – and power the area cut – from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Winai said subdistrict employees will get the word out to residents and put up detour signs.
The electrical work is aimed at reducing brownouts in East Pattaya. However, the project will require several days due to signs and billboards hanging over wires. Once the PEA has removed those signs, another day of work will be required.
