Airport traffic gridlocked
While plane departures and arrivals were running smoothly at Suvarnabhumi Airport yesterday, down on the ground it was a different story with traffic around the vast site moving at a snail's pace.
Security guards at the new airport, which began full services yesterday, blamed the traffic snarls on confusing traffic signs and people's reluctance to use public transport."The traffic was jammed. Limousines, taxis and personal vehicles were all in the same lanes," one unnamed security guard said. He said people complained incessantly about the traffic because many areas in the new airport compound remained under construction.
