Hua Hin parking changes planned for Soi 94
Hua Hin parking measures, including odd-even day no-parking signs in Soi 94 and designated parking areas for rental vehicles, were discussed at a municipal road safety meeting held on 2 July.
The proposals were raised during the second meeting of the Hua Hin Municipality Road Safety Operations Centre Committee for 2026, chaired by Deputy Mayor Sanphop Ungratsamee on behalf of the mayor.
The meeting focused on traffic management, road safety and the use of public spaces as Hua Hin continues to experience heavier traffic linked to the city’s growth.
Officials discussed the installation of odd-even day no-parking signs in Hua Hin Soi 94 as part of efforts to manage roadside parking and improve traffic flow. The issue was raised alongside complaints about congestion in several areas, including Hua Hin Soi 88, near Ban Khun Por restaurant, and the Khao Phitak community, where narrow roads and heavy parking were said to be affecting traffic.
Rental vehicle parking areas proposed
The committee also discussed problems caused by large numbers of daily rental motorcycles being parked along roadsides, particularly on Naresdamri Road and near the junction of Poolsuk Road and Damnoen Kasem Road.
Officials proposed setting designated parking areas for rental vehicles to make parking more orderly and reduce the impact on residents and tourists.
A one-way traffic system was also proposed for Dechanuchit Road, Soi 57, from the seafront intersection beside Centara Hua Hin to the junction near The Chocolate Factory. The proposal followed concerns that vehicles parked on both sides of the road had created narrow sections and bottlenecks, particularly during busy periods.
Road safety measures reviewed
Hua Hin Police Station reported that from January to June 2026 there were 23 accidents recorded in the PRS system, resulting in 21 deaths and nine injuries requiring hospital treatment. Most of the accidents occurred on Phetkasem Road.
Officials said a new set of traffic lights has been activated on Phetkasem Road at the entrance to Hua Hin Soi 51. Traffic police will control the lights during busy morning and evening periods from Monday to Friday.
The committee also proposed clearer road markings on Chomsin Road near the Sawang Hua Hin Thammasathan Foundation junction to improve order and allow safer parking.
Hua Hin Municipality was assigned to coordinate with Hua Hin Police Station on the proposed measures.
