Anyone driving over the Sukhumvit will already see several changes in the vicinity of the future tunnel. This may mean that tunnel construction is nearing its end. According to rumors in the corridors, it would be ready in the beginning of the new year: February or March.

Coming from the Pattaya Thai you can already see a few trees on the "roof" of the tunnel. There is light at the end of the tunnel. Literally speaking this time, because a number of lampposts in a beautiful plinth have already been placed. Partition plates are also removed and a view of a gigantic plain is obtained. It is difficult for a layman to imagine what this will become.

However, when the tunnel is ready, how will the connection with Pattaya East be realized? How is the two-way Siam Country road connected to the Sukhumvit road? Or will this busy road towards Maprachan Reservoir not be relieved until the huge project of the road 331 to Banglamung is finished. Like a slowly creeping monster, a huge road is being built, which becomes visible everywhere. In Huai Yai, then half way to Maprachan Reservoir to resurface in the vicinity of Wat Nong Prue.

The participants in the rally ride on Sunday 29 January of the NVTP will get to see a part of it.

    I don't think this photo is right. The tunnel is the other way around and you cannot see this entrance / exit if you drive to Pattaya Tai. You can see this entrance/exit when you drive towards Pattaya Klang.
    Nice photo just tricked in my opinion
