Thank you for your continued understanding and cooperation with the Tokyo Outer Ring Road Project (Gaikan Project).
2020 We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and anxiety caused to residents due to the ground surface sinking and void accident during the construction of the Outer Ring Road Project that occurred in Chofu City in October.
We will hold an open house for residents living near the construction site of the South Ramp Shield Tunnel of Chuo JCT, where we will provide individual explanations using panels and other materials. At this Open House, we explained the "measures to prevent recurrence and to enhance the safety and security of the community" and "excavation in the project site" of the Chuo JCT South Ramp Shield Tunnel construction, which were confirmed at the 26th meeting of the "Tokyo Outer Ring Tunnel Construction Review Committee" (December 1, 2022). The meeting also included an explanation of "measures to prevent recurrence and to enhance the safety and security of the community" and "excavation in the project site.
The meeting also provided an opportunity for residents who wished to participate to exchange opinions with the project operator.
