City police on Tuesday issued an order banning sixwheel trucks and bigger vehicles from using the Krung Thon Bridge at any time due to its age and condition.
The ban was signed by Pol Maj Gen Worasak Nopsittiporn, deputy city police commissioner.
The bridge, which is known as Sang He Bridge, is more than 50 years old and the weight of heavy vehicles could affect its structure.
The ban on sixwheel and heavier trucks was issued following the decision taken by a subcommittee on traffic, which met on December 8, 2011.
