Rama VII Bridge (Thai: สะพานพระราม 7, RTGS: Saphan Phra Ram Chet, pronounced [sā.pʰāːn pʰráʔ rāːm t͡ɕèt]) is a bridge over the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok and Nonthaburi, in Thailand, connecting the Bang Sue District and Bang Phlat District. The roadway is in a dual carriageway configuration, with 3 lanes in each direction. The bridge was named in honour of King Prajadhipok. The bridge was constructed to ease the increase in road traffic volumes on the adjacent Rama VI bridge.[1][2]
