Traffic police tackle holiday traffic jams
Heavy holiday traffic caused
backups in many areas, including North Pattaya Road (shown here).Theerarak Suthathiwong

Holidays mean traffic in Pattaya and the back to back long weekends
proved no differently as traffic officers worked intersections and shuffled
traffic cones to keep cars moving.
Police worked roads and shortcuts connecting Sukhumvit Road with major
north-south arteries, with more than 20 traffic police officers and
additional volunteers working congested points such as the Dolphin
Roundabout. Many wrote tickets, but others let go those making illegal
U-turns and parking illegally with a warning.
At the traffic circle, officers erected metal fences to block U-turns to
keep traffic moving to Beach Road and into Naklua.
Capt. Tepparat Sukrakan said the heavy traffic is normal, but police were
under orders from provincial commanders to keep things moving.
