The Mass Rapid Transit Authority of Thailand (MRTA) will implement traffic lane reductions on Phitsanulok Road starting November 1, 2026.
According to a report by Thai Post, the Mass Rapid Transit Authority of Thailand (MRTA) has announced a scheduled traffic diversion affecting Phitsanulok Road near the Yommarat Intersection. Starting November 1, 2026, the road will be reduced to two traffic lanes to facilitate ongoing construction activities.
This adjustment is significant for both local residents and travelers who frequently commute through this area of Bangkok. The reduction in available lanes is expected to impact traffic flow, potentially leading to congestion during peak hours. Commuters are advised to plan their journeys in advance and consider alternative routes if possible to avoid delays.
While the MRTA has confirmed the start date for these traffic modifications, specific details regarding the expected duration of the lane reduction have not been provided in the initial announcement. Travelers should remain alert for further updates from local authorities and observe all posted traffic signs and signals in the vicinity of the Yommarat Intersection to ensure safety and compliance with the new traffic management measures.
