The Thonburi Road Extension Project, Section 1: Taksin – Ratchadapisek

traffic congestion at Wongwain Yai, at main intersection nearby,
including Memorial Bridge and Krungthep Bridge. The connecting road
project was devided into 2 contract packages: Taksin –Ratchadapisek
section and Ratchadapisek – Phetkasem section.
