Prachanukul Intersection Overpass to Close for Seven-Month Repair
Starting September 28, the Prachanukul intersection overpass will undergo a seven-month closure for major road surface repairs following public complaints.
According to a report by Matichon Online, the Prachanukul intersection overpass is scheduled to close for extensive maintenance beginning September 28. The closure is expected to last for seven months as authorities address significant deterioration of the road surface.
This project was initiated following numerous complaints from the public regarding the poor condition of the bridge, which has raised concerns about safety and vehicle wear. For residents and commuters who frequently use this route, the closure will likely result in significant traffic congestion in the surrounding area. Travelers are advised to plan their journeys in advance, allow for extra travel time, or seek alternative routes to avoid the construction zone.
While the start date has been confirmed, specific details regarding traffic management plans, lane closures on the ground level, or potential detours have not been fully detailed by local authorities. Residents should monitor official announcements from the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration or local traffic police for updates as the project progresses. It remains to be seen how effectively traffic flow will be managed during the peak hours throughout this extended construction period.
