Infrastructure investment in the government's flagship Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC) during 2022-2026, seen as the second phase of EEC development, is estimated at only 398 billion baht, a significant drop from 900 billion baht in the first phase of 2018-2021.
Kanit Sangsubhan, secretary-general to the Eastern Economic Corridor Office, said the second-phase development will target rail and road development to facilitate better transport, address traffic jams in three EEC provinces, and provide rail feeders to link the high-speed network and Laem Chabang deep seaport.
