Following from a Lao friend up in Phonsavan regarding the road conditions:
due to on-going road construction,
the road is open from:
5 to 7 AM
12 to 1 PM
after 5 PM
xxxxxxxxx
We came down this road in early December 2008 and did run into several not too lengthly delays because of the new construction. BTW, a Vietnamese company has the contract for this job.
Had planned to visit Tha Thom in early April but now may give it a miss.
