Thai-Laos brige boosts the travel
January 27th, 2007
More links planned to span the Mekhong, opening transportation options for the Southeast Asia corridor.
The recent-launched Thai-Laos bridge across the Mekhong connecting Mukdahan province in Thailand and Savannaket Province of Laos has obviously boosts travel between the two countries. There are plans for the third bridge linking Nakorn Panom in Thailand with Khammouane (Tha Khek) in Laos and the fourth bridge connecting Chiang Rai with Huay Xai in Laos.
The first bridge connecting the countries across the Mekhong River is at Nong Khai opened in 1994. It links northeast of Thailand with the Lao capital, Vientiane.
