3. Construction overview

Due to damage to the road surface at Honjo Kodama IC on Kan-Etsu Expressway, pavement repair work will be carried out. The section where this work will be carried out is a single lane, and since construction cannot be carried out under normal lane restrictions, it is necessary to work with the ramp closed.
Therefore, in order to minimize inconvenience to customers, we will close the ramps at night when there is little traffic, and carry out construction work intensively and efficiently.
We ask for your understanding and cooperation as this work is necessary for safe and comfortable use of Expressway.
