Thread: Pattaya Beach Vendors Complain Over Rule Forbidding Parking on Beach Side

Some beach vendors are not so pleased with the rule that forbids parking on the beach side of Pattaya Beach, claiming it negatively affects tourists.


The beach umbrella operators on Pattaya Beach alleged to the local media that the ban on parking caused the tourism atmosphere during the 6-day-long holiday to become dull because most tourists found it inconvenient to visit Pattaya Beach due to the absence of parking spaces.


Mr. Wittaya Boonma, one of the affected operators, claimed that he only saw some bustle in the first and second days of the long holiday.

Besides other factors, Wittaya believed that the ban on parking on the right side of the road played a crucial role in affecting the tourists. During the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, Pattaya had accommodated tourists by allowing parking on the right side.


However, as the pandemic situation improved and traffic issues started to rise following the return of tourists, the rule was changed, and parking on the right side was no longer permitted. Wittaya said that this resulted in a lack of parking spaces, leading to tourists looking for alternative seaside places to visit like Rayong, for example.

“Rayong’s beaches provide comfortable and accessible parking facilities, so tourists have found it more appealing to visit,” Wittaya complained to local media.


Thus, the beach umbrella operators hoped that Pattaya city officials will swiftly take action to resolve the parking issues as well as the ongoing construction on the footpath. This is not only beneficial for beach umbrella operators but also for various other businesses operating by the beach, Wittaya said.

Pattaya Beach Vendors Complain Over Rule Forbidding Parking on Beach Side - The Pattaya News

These chicken heads are so full of shit. Before Covid, parking on the right side of Beach Road had never been permitted. During the pandemic when the the place was a ghost town parking was permitted to allow for Bangkokians visiting at weekends to access the beach more easily given that no obstruction to the one way system could arise for the simple reason there was no fucking traffic.

If parking is permitted then Beach Rd will be reduced to scarcely one lane and traffic will be paralysed by its junction with Pattaya Klang onwards.

Also, folk have only got so much dosh to spend on these daft new holidays and in the end it’s economics that dictate trade, not fucking parking. But because these chicken heads are so fucking stupid they can’t see it.
