Bus Services Suspended on Five Eastern Routes Due to Flooding
The Transport Co., Ltd. (BKS) has announced the temporary suspension of five bus routes in Eastern Thailand following severe flooding in the region.
According to a report by Khaosod Online on September 26, 2026, The Transport Co., Ltd. (BKS) has confirmed that five bus routes serving Eastern Thailand have been temporarily suspended due to heavy rainfall and subsequent flooding.
The affected routes include:
- Route 46: Bangkok–Rayong (Old Route)
- Route 48: Bangkok–Pattaya (Van services only)
- Routes 914/917: Bangkok–Chanthaburi–Trat (operated by Thanatawee Transport Co., Ltd.)
- Route 9916: Bangkok–Wang Nam Yen–Khlong Hat
- Route 9916: Bangkok–Sa Kaeo–Aranyaprathet–Rong Kluea Market
For travelers and residents, this disruption means that transit times may be significantly impacted. BKS advises passengers to allow extra time when traveling to bus terminals. While these specific partner-operated routes are currently halted until conditions improve, BKS stated that its own direct bus services continue to operate as scheduled across all routes.
BKS is monitoring the situation closely as heavy rain persists across various parts of the country. The company plans to adjust its operational strategies as necessary to ensure passenger safety. Travelers are encouraged to stay updated on local weather reports and check with their specific bus operators before departure, as the duration of these suspensions remains subject to change based on the evolving flood situation.
