Pattaya —

Following multiple complaints from local residents about people performing sexual activities at the railway sleeper storage area near Pattaya Railway Station, authorities have finally taken action to solve the issue.

The site had reportedly become a meeting spot for both same-sex and opposite-sex partners for several months, with numerous used condoms found littered in the area. Concerns were also raised about public health and the city’s image as a family-friendly destination.

In response to the issue, Pol. Col. Navin Sinthurat, Superintendent of Bangamung Police Station, coordinated with railway officials and other relevant agencies to inspect the site on February 25th.

During the inspection, railway officials decided to enclose the area with barbed wire fencing to prevent people from entering the area. Signs prohibiting entry will also be put up, and local patrol officers will regularly monitor the site to deter future sexual activities.
