Thailand route 32
Thailand Route 32 ( Thai : ทางหลวง แผ่นดิน หมายเลข 32 - Thang Luang Phaen Din Mai Lek 32 , in German: Nationalstrasse 32; in English usage: Highway 32) is a 194 km long expressway in Thailand .
It begins in Bang Pa In district ( Amphoe ) in the Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya province at the Thanon Phahonyothin interchange (National Road 1) and the Outer Bangkok Ring Road (Motorway 9). It then leads through the provinces of Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, Ang Thong , Sing Buri , Chai Nat until it meets the Thanon Phahonyothin again right on the border with the Nakhon Sawan province .
This expressway was subject to tolls until the mid-1990s . The two toll booths still exist today, but are only used as administrative buildings.
Compared to other long-haul connections, Highway 32 is the shorter and faster route from Bangkok to Nakhon Sawan and the northern region of Thailand. It is part of the Asian Highway Network AH1 and AH2 and the Kunming-Bangkok Expressway .
In 2008/2009, due to the high volume of traffic between Bangkok and Nakhon Sawan, the highway was extended to six lanes, and in some parts even to eight lanes.
