Pattaya Announces Temporary Traffic Closures for Second Road Surface Upgrade
PATTAYA, Thailand – Pattaya City has announced temporary traffic restrictions along a key stretch of Pattaya Second Road to facilitate major road improvement works.
The affected section runs from the Chai Mongkol Temple Intersection in South Pattaya to Central Pattaya. Closures and restrictions begin on August 14th, 2026, as part of the ongoing Pattaya Second Road rehabilitation project.
Phase 2 of the works will start on August 17th, 2026. Construction teams will remove the existing road surface and repave it with asphaltic concrete. Operations will take place daily between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., with completion targeted for September 17th, 2026.
