laneHow a soi gets its number

เลขซอยมาจากไหน · lek soi

Odd on one side, even on the other, counted from the head of the road.

What it is

A soi branches from a main road and is numbered along it, even numbers on one side and odd on the other, counting from the road's start; a lane off a soi is a trok or a sub-number. Named sois often carry a landowner's name. The main road's start is a decision someone made once, which is why Nimmanhaemin's numbers run from the Huay Kaew end.
