YES-actually there is no traffic at all-in/around mob-sites, they also block the end of Silom near RamIV-but then I guess even in normal times that end of Silom would also be no-no for parking. Have not been there, but Silom is said to be a giant walking street. Portests often grow considerably after work-when the flagbearing whistleblowers come out.
NO-its much quieter in other main streets as normal.
Best advice is to park at an outer garage and use BTS.

-- Khun Pong has offered a fair summary.
- The Thai-JP. overpass is
CLOSED, as is Rama IV. rd from its i'sect. with Suriwong/Henri Dunant rds. SEwards towards Sathorn rds.; but m/c. taxis and regular taxis are allowed through. Road-traffic is allowed from the Naras Thiwat/Chong Nonsi i'sect. as far as Tnn. Thaniya, at wch. point it must turn
LEFT along Thaniya to Suriwong rd..
- Correct - the Rama IV. end of Si Lom rd. is a giant walking street with food stalls and other booths selling tee-shirts
etc. etc..
- Some massage parlors remain
OPEN for business - such little as it might be.
- But
Khun Pong's advice about parking is best: park at an outer garage or BTS./MRT. stn. and take the SkyTrain/MRT.. If one must bring-in one's car as one wishes to stay late in BKK. then seek a parking space on S'wong. rd or in one of the hotels' garages along S'wong. rd., (not too far to walk back.),.
