Sanit signed the transfer order on Monday to send Khajornkiat to the city police’s operation centre for 30 days or until another order is issued.

The transfer was due to frequent |traffic congestion at the Din Daeng Expressway gate near Surasak Montri School on Vibhavadi-Rangsit Road during the morning rush hours and the apparent lack of traffic police directing traffic, according to the order.

Pol Colonel Phusit Wisetkhamin will be acting Expressway 2 traffic superintendent in the meantime, the order said.

Sanit yesterday explained that despite previous warnings, traffic jams under the Expressway 2 precinct’s jurisdiction |continued so the transfer order was issued to signal to all superintendents that they must seriously tackle traffic problems.
