The Expressway Authority of Thailand (EXAT) is studying a 5.9 km toll bridge linking Koh Chang to the Trat mainland, est. 15,000 million baht. Next stage (2027-2029) covers the EIA and land acquisition prep; construction is expected around 2031 and opening around 2035. Planned toll is about 200-300 baht per vehicle, close to the ferry fare. Land acquisition affects 65 plots (23 on Koh Chang, 42 in Khlong Yai, Laem Ngop). Compensation is based on market prices, 2-year sale records, nearby land within 2 km, and bank and government valuations. Owners with land along the route should keep records and watch the public hearings. Nothing to act on for operators yet.
