Phetkasem to be a toll road in future??

Or a low emissions zone in the centre like a lot of cities around the world are introducing.

That would eliminate 99% of the black smoke belching diesel pickups!!

In theory. Will it be enforced?

Of course it would - all laws in Thailand are enforced aren’t they?

With great police enthusiasm, about once a week before lunchtime, like most other Thai road legislation!

Will the hordes be with us all next week since Monday is a holiday and so are Thursday and Friday?

Petchkasem was closed down to 1 lane today with a million cones in place and every cop on duty. Not sure who it was for but appears to be a clear route to the Marriot.
All cops on 'traffic' duty when they'd normally be with their mates drinking coffee, I guess they decided to do a helmet blitz. Every m/bike was stopped whether you had a helmet or not.

I think they've arrived. It's just taken me 21 minutes from the flyover to Soi 94

Yesterday and today, cones outside the palace forcing single lane into Hua Hin. Cop at every soi. I saw some vehicles u-turn when they saw the cones ahead - maybe thinking a police checkpoint.

Well I got stopped yesterday aft while an entourage flew by (lots of 'royal' cream-coloured Mercs), but today I've notice that all the cones are still out there...??
