Overpass mulled as solution to Vientiane’s traffic snarls
Officials are wrestling with the problem of identifying a long-term solution to Vientiane’s chronic traffic jams and some are suggesting that an overpass might ease the situation.
While no such scheme currently exists, it is not beyond the bounds of possibility to imagine that overpasses will one day be built in Laos’ larger urban centres.
An official from the Ministry of Public Works and Transport, who requested anonymity, told Vientiane Times on 9 November that this had been the only suggestion proposed in meetings to consider the issue.
