it will be part of the express way? Bangkok roads are just getting better and better. :)

Naah Khun chat, The bridge you have taken photos is the T bridge for Industrial Ring Road connecting Rama 3, Phra Padaeng (Suksawat and downtown Phrapadaeng), and Poochao Samingphrai togather ... since Rama 9 bridge has reached the traffic capacity Limit ... Not a part of Soutehrn Kanchanaphisek outer Ring Road whihs not born yet due to the fighting even after Ch Karnchang has won the bidding ... and the Collusion seems to plays around with SOuthern kanchanaphisek Outer Ring Road even after quotign the lowest bid ... to creare the cost overrun later on ...

But according to the news I'v read, Ch Karnchang has won the highway part and the Ital-Thai has got a bridge contract...., So I'm little confused now..

What u r talking about, the suspension bridge design is the new one....the old one is just a concrete bridge like without any designs.......I defnietly prefer this one...
 
#23 ·
This is the design they'r building
