BANGKOK (The Nation/Asia News Network): Trat authorities will conduct a second, more detailed, survey to gauge residents’ opinions on a planned bridge linking Koh Chang to the mainland. The first survey on the project was conducted four years ago and construction of the bridge is scheduled to kick off in 2023.
The long-awaited construction of a bridge connecting Trat on the mainland to Koh Chang is likely to get the nod if it passes its second public hearing this year, according to Somkiat Samatthakan, chairman of the provincial working committee organising the hearings.
