It may not happen today or tomorrow, next week , next month or next year, but it will happen on Earth as it does in Heaven.

The governor of Phnom Penh’s Daun Penh district Sok Penh Vuth said on Tuesday that authorities will begin taking tough measures on Thursday against illegal parking and street vendors that encroach the pavements alongside Preah Norodom Boulevard between Wat Phnom and Independence Monument.
Penh Vuth told The Post that the authorities will tow away vehicles that park on the pavement and impound them for 15 days before making contracts to return the vehicles. The measures will apply to everyone, he said, including state institutions and car dealers.
“[On Wednesday] we will issue warnings for one more day to ministries, institutions, companies and private houses along the boulevard so they can cooperate."
“After distributing the warning, if they don’t listen . . . we will carry out the administrative measures from February 21,” he said.
Penh Vuth said the public order notice is being made because Preah Norodom Boulevard is the main road which national and international delegates travel on and its pavements are equipped with special luxury tiles for pedestrians and people with disabilities to use.

Re: I want my sidewalk back.
Norodom is actually one of the few streets that are walkable in this town. Maybe some small sidestreets in tonle basaak are also nice (abdul carime) but no pavement there. I would say work on the rest but that's kinda naive.

Re: I want my sidewalk back.
Norodom is quite walkable, especially on the west side. The stretch either side of street 154 gets a bit blocked.
The authorities have put a grass verge along the stretch outside Sisowath School (178 to 184) so cars can no longer park on the sidewalk there. This has had the effect of making a nice clear run for motos to use when the main street gets blocked! This keeps you on your toe when sidewalk-walking.
Re: I want my sidewalk back.
Thing is the street traders pay the house owner to use the sidewalk in front of their house. I looked at a house with a "sitting tenant" psying $300 a month to block the sidewalk.
Re: I want my sidewalk back.
I just drove down Norodom and there were still cars parked on the sidewalks so maybe it is going to happen tomorrow....

Re: I want my sidewalk back.
The sidewalks on both sides of Norodom between 110 and Independence have been remarkably clear of late. Almost like a normal city. The only complete blockage I noticed was at KFC, corner of 208, where customers are invited to park and block the pavement.
Motos are getting more and more interested in using the newly cleared paths as an expressway, however.
I give credit to the city authorities for progress on promoting walking and bus use. These have to be key in alleviating traffic congestion and pollution.
