Holiday makers start returning from South
Play
Bangkok-bound traffic on Phetchkasem Road through Phetchaburi, known as the “gate to the South”, became thicker on Saturday with Songkran holiday-makers starting to head back to the capital.
The traffic was still flowing but slow at certain spots. Police also temporarily closed U-turn points on Phetchkasem from Khao Yoi district to Cha-am to avoid accidents.
Officials in Phetchaburi joined hands with the Phetchaburi head office, the 15th Army Circle, the Phetchaburi Land Transport Office and the local administration bodies to set up tents for motorists to stop, rest and receive urgent car services along the way from Khao Yoi to Cha-am.
