Pattaya tourist police are back at their tables on Walking Street after the Pattaya nightlife strip was closed again to traffic.
Tourist Police inspector Pol. Lt. Col. Pitchaya Kiewpleung said officers again are stationed at either end of Walking Street to provide assistance to tourists. The division also has officers on foot and bicycle patrols to prevent crime, such as pickpocketing and harassing tourists.
Tourist police disappeared from Walking Street since 2020, even though many bars reopened months ago. Now that cars cannot enter the strip from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m., officers have resumed their traditional posts.
Tourists needing help can call 1155 or use the Tourist Police ‘I Lert You’ mobile application.
