The Department of Highways, with the Engineering Institute of Thailand (EIT), load-tested the M82 elevated motorway (Bang Khun Thian–Ekachai–Bang Phae) under legal truck loads, following AASHTO standards, and reports responses within set criteria. The route opens to traffic on 28 August 2026. If your delivery or logistics routes use this corridor, plan to use it from that date and check travel times again once traffic settles. No other action is needed.
