Rte 2 to Rte 22 to Nong Sai by-pass

[FrazeeDK]

Udon Thani Route 2 to Rte 22 to Nong Sai by-pass. The Udon Development FB page mentioned that the final planning for this by-pass is being done and construction should start in 2021. This is the map of the route they posted.

it mentions an overpass, probably on Rte 22 (Sakon Nakhon highway).

Any idea why the line is red north of the road to Nong sai and blue south of the road to Nong Sai?

I live in this area and this idea seems half baked to me. Just look at the ridiculous curve once has to travel and with all the intersections this couldn't possibly save time versus the main ring road if traveling north.

Read the OP. It mentions an over-pass. Will be much quicker for traffic traveling north-south if it avoids the traffic lights on the existing ring road.

Maybe, if it is a double lane road both ways. Single lane I'm not so sure it would save time. And if this new road ends with an intersection at the road to Sam Phrao what wouldn't make much sense. It should cross over that road but the map doesn't show that.

By the way, there is already a bypass road from Route 22 to Sam Phrao and NS area but nobody uses it because it is entirely broken.
