Highway 12 to economic heaven

Get your motor running: A car travels on the Phitsanulok-Lom Sak section of Highway 12 which was expanded from two lanes to four lanes. The improved mobility will make transport on the route more efficient and safe.

The completion of Highway 12 -- a 793-km transport corridor linking Tak in the North with Mukdahan in the Northeast -- will provide immense business opportunities as the emerging economic driver in the region, according to local transport and tourism industry leaders.

Businesses are upbeat and more confident of growth after the government recently announced the completion of the final phase of Highway 12, a 115.6-km section between Kalasin and Mukdahan in the Northeast, according to government spokesman Anucha Burapachaisri.
