The double-track rail along the State Railway of Thailand’s southern range, which stretches from Nakhon Pathom and Chumphon, is actually empty, the company announced on Monday.
According to the mind of SRT mayor’s office, Ekarat Sri-arayanpong, the newly opened record will increase operational operations along the 421-kilometre way.
Additionally, it will shorten the southern line’s journey times by up to 90 days, increasing the appeal of road travel. The upgrade will also enhance the system’s overall safety because trains moving in opposite directions wo n’t have to wait to pass each other.
The column starts in Nakhon Pathom and mind through Ratchaburi, Phetchaburi, and Prachuap Khiri Khan before ending in Chumphon. It is mostly at surface levels, except in urban areas, where they are elevated to reduce traffic congestion.
The series passes two big landmarks, the first being the bridge across the Mae Klong River in Ratchaburi, which the government intends to promote as the country’s newest tourist destination, and the new Hua Hin railroad station, which retains the architectural style of the old station.
The SRT plans more dual-track spreads, including between Khon-Kaen-Nong Khai and Nakhon Ratchasima-Ubon Ratchathani in the Northeast, Pak Nam Pho-Den Chai and Den Chai-Chiang Mai in the North, and Hat Yai-Padang Besar, Surat Thani-Songkhla, and Chumphon-Surat Thani in the South.
By the time the upgrades are completed in 2029, Thailand did include 2, 370 kilometres of dual-track railways, which will greatly increase the world’s logistical efficiency and attractiveness to tourists, he said.
The Ha Sadet pipe will resume next month, according to Mr. Ekarat. Due to complaints about sand, the nation’s longest road tunnel was shut down the day after it opened on July 28.
He claimed that the decision was made after a check on August 8 revealed increased exhaust gases remained after a train passed.
