PATTAYA, Thailand – Pattaya city Mayor Poramet Ngampichet, conducted a site visit on June 10 to monitor the progress of the road improvement project and explore solutions to alleviate the traffic jams at North Pattaya-Sukhumvit Road intersection. This resurfacing work has been on-going for months causing extreme inconvenience for locals and commuters passing through town.
The congestion was found to be caused by lane closures and delays at the traffic signals. Mayor Poramet urged the police department to revise the traffic management plan at the North Pattaya intersection by immediately opening the leftmost lane to allow continuous vehicle flow. This measure significantly improved traffic fluidity and eased commuter inconvenience in the area.
