Pattaya Steps Up Traffic Control Ahead of 2025 Music Festival

Pattaya —

Pattaya traffic police conducted a late-night operation to tackle illegal parking and congestion, targeting songthaews, taxis, and street vendors ahead of the upcoming Pattaya Music Festival 2025.

At 1:06 AM on March 7th, Pol. Lt. Col. Panupong Nimsuwan, a traffic inspector at Pattaya Police Station, led a team of traffic officers to crack down on traffic violations, particularly illegal parking around Pattaya.

The operation targeted parking in restricted areas, with a focus on songthaews, taxis, and street vendors with carts that frequently obstruct traffic, causing congestion for both residents and tourists.

The officers patrolled Beach Road, a hotspot for songthaew and taxi drivers who often park illegally. They also searched for street vendors, which often operated in narrow alleyways near tourist areas and workplaces and caused traffic problems.

Pol. Lt. Col. Panupong said Pattaya traffic police are working non-stop to ease congestion. With the four-week Pattaya Music Festival 2025 coming up, more tourists are expected, so managing traffic is a top priority.
