The Transport Ministry plans 313 projects worth 823,178 million baht over 2027-2030, covering road, rail, water and air. 2027 starts with 262 projects (229,769 million baht), including the 61 km M8 motorway from Nakhon Pathom to Pak Tho. Three southern double-track rail lines worth 106,797 million baht are going to tender; the Ministry says the rail network is due to be complete by 2033. For SMEs in logistics, construction supply, or businesses along the southern routes, this points to future demand, but these are plans and timelines can slip.
