PeterRS Posted July 11, 2023 Posted July 11, 2023 Yesterday evening part of the Onnut-Lat Krabang expressway which is under construction collapsed when a crane raising a four-lane road section overturned. The Bangkok Post states 2 were killed and 10 injured. The collapse is captured in a short facebook vdo on the Bangkok Post page. https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/2609423/2-killed-10-hurt-as-elevated-road-collapses-in-bangkok TMax, vinapu, floridarob and 1 other 2 2 Quote

fedssocr Posted July 11, 2023 Posted July 11, 2023 There was another section of elevated road under construction that collapsed a few months ago. Given all of the projects going on I suppose it's more likely to happen, but it is certainly concerning. I wonder if it's corruption, incompetence, substandard materials or a combination. floridarob 1 Quote
