Transport Minister Pipat ordered fixes to long-standing access, traffic and capacity problems at the ICD Lat Krabang and Rom Klao freight stations, and the new PPP concession for the six ICD stations is still pending cabinet approval. The Department of Highways starts building a direct ramp onto M7 toward Chon Buri on 1 August 2026, due 28 March 2027; capacity rises from 930 to 1,194 vehicles per hour. Trucks heading to Chon Buri currently drive toward Bangkok to turn around. If you run trucking or forwarding through ICD Lat Krabang, plan routes and delivery timing around construction over the next months. Rail container volume to Laem Chabang is growing, so rail is a realistic option to compare with road.
