According to Deputy Minister of Transport Akom Termpittayapaisit, the 7.5km road will connect Thailand’s northeastern province of Si Sa Ket with Siem Reap of Cambodia.
Its main purpose is to promote tourism between the two nations once ASEAN becomes a single market later this year. Construction on the road began in June last year.
