The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) has said preliminary investigations indicate that heavy equipment lifting a concrete segment caused the collapse of an elevated road under construction on Luang Phaeng Road on Monday evening, killing two people and injuring 12 others.
The collapsed 600-metre section — stretching from Lotus’s Lat Krabang branch to Jorakay Noi police station — is part of the 2.2-kilometre-long On Nut-Lat Krabang elevated road project.
