Route details

Route 4012 start at Ban Tha Pae, at exactly the point where Route 401 ends. It run south to Nakhon Si Thammarat town. It is four-lane asphalt, two in each direction separated by a median.

Originally, the route passed through Fort Vachirawut. This caused inconvenience because at night only vehicles with permission cards could use the route. Vehicles without permission used Routes 4016 and 4103 to avoid Fort Vachirawut.

A new 4012 roadway was constructed about 1 km east of Fort Vachirawut. The newer route allows 24-hour access by all vehicles. The new route is usually known to locals as Thanon Om Kai (Fort-devious Road).
