4 Construction content

Tohoku Expressway Since the bridge on the Iwatsuki IC lamp is deteriorating, repair work will be performed on the bridge.

This work requires replacement work of the expansion/contraction device at the joint of the bridge, so it is necessary to close the exit ramp for National Road No. 16 Kasukabe from the Iwatsuki IC tollgate.

Therefore, in order to minimize the impact on customers, we will close the lamps at night when traffic is light and carry out the work intensively and efficiently.

We ask for your understanding and cooperation so that our customers can use our products safely and comfortably.
