Samsen Road Subsidence Caused by Drainage Pipe Leak

According to a report by Matichon Online on November 10, 2026, a portion of Samsen Road located in front of the Boon Rawd Brewery has suffered a structural collapse. Authorities have identified the primary cause of the incident as an unsealed drainage pipe associated with ongoing construction work in the area. The open pipe allowed water to leak, which subsequently eroded the soil layers beneath the road surface, leading to the subsidence. For residents and travelers in the area, this incident highlights potential disruptions to local traffic flow and safety concerns regarding road integrity near construction sites. While the immediate cause has been identified as water leakage from the unsealed pipe, further assessments are likely required to determine the full extent of the damage to the underground infrastructure and the timeline for necessary repairs. Motorists are advised to exercise caution when traveling through this section of Samsen Road until official restoration work is completed and the area is declared safe for normal traffic. Authorities have not yet provided a specific date for when the road will be fully reopened or repaired.
