Bangkok’s Asoke overpass closes for maintenance
The busy Asoke Overpass at Bangkok’s Phetchburi-Ratchadapisek intersection will be closed from March 9 to September 4.
A source at the BMA says the overpass will be closed for maintenance and upgrades to the structures capacity.
They say the six month closure will allow major strengthening of the 40 year old overpass, which has undergone numerous minor repairs before, to ensure it can continue to support large trucks.
Motorists are being advised to use the five traffic lanes underneath the overpass during the time of the closure.
