About the 2006 Highway Xmas Event

~Kan-Etsu Expressway Expressway The largest illumination tree appeared at Kosaka SA (In-bound line)~

December 14, 2006
East Nippon Expressway Co., Ltd.

Due to stormy weather late at night on December 26, the illumination tree was damaged, so we stopped displaying the tree.
Thank you for visiting our website. (December 27)

NEXCO EAST (Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, Chairman: Shigejiro Yagi) is offering concerts and other events so that customers using the Expressway can enjoy themselves at the SA/PA (service area/parking area). We will carry out a campaign. In addition, in the Kan-Etsu Expressway Kosaka Service Area (In-bound line), an illumination tree of "the highest Expressway" will be installed, and a 10m-high illumination tree will color the nighttime SA. Please enjoy the fantastic atmosphere.
