Thank you for the question Ajarn MALLIKA JONGSIRI

I use elevators to support up-down in all zones. There is a ramp.  At different areas of the bridge.
And the BTS corridor connects to the BTS elevator. BTS
The park area of Khlong San side already has a car park to accommodate the users of the park.
However, since it needs to be more active,The area next to the park is an area of The Pier.Suitable for development as a parking space in the future.

Thank you for the question Ajarn ROSALINE SHAW

I've been exploring each time, working day and holidays, studying people flow behavior, user groups, as well as the number, and in other details, study from research books or statistics.
The design has been used as a walking trail in the distance and function  at each break point.
