Flood toll rises, traffic jams up

Traffic was jammed up on the road from Rangsit in Pathum Thani province, on Bangkok's outskirts, to Nakhon Nayok after the Phahon Yothin highway was closed due to heavy flooding in Ayutthaya's Wang Noi district, the Highways Department announced on Thursday.

The department said vehicles began to get stuck on the road from noon today when traffic was nearly at a standstill along about eight kilometres of the road from Khlong Rangsit 1 to Khlong Rangsit 7.

After the closure of the Phahon Yothin highway, northeast-bound motorists were advised to use the Rangsit - Nakhon Nayok road.
