NEXCO EAST Obihiro Administration Office (Otofuke-cho, Kato-gun) will produce a bird house (birdhouse) to be installed in the parking area of Yubari Municipal Yubari Elementary School and the E38 Doto Expressway (Doto Expressway).
This production meeting was started in 2005 at a rest facility in the Tokachi area as part of social contribution activities to support education in collaboration with the NPO Feathered Friend to provide elementary school students with opportunities to enjoy nature. After that, it was widely implemented at rest facilities all over Hokkaido, and more than 3,000 birdhouses have been made all over Hokkaido so far.
