2. Construction overview

Since the telescopic device has been damaged at the Wako North IC, Toda Higashi IC, and Kawaguchi Nishi IC lamps of the Gaikan Expressway, we will replace the telescopic device.
The section where this work is carried out is one lane, and since it is not possible to carry out construction with normal lane regulations, it is necessary to close the ramp and work.
Therefore, in order to cause as little inconvenience to customers as possible, we will close the lamps on weeknights when there is little traffic and carry out construction intensively and efficiently. This construction is necessary for safe and comfortable use of the Expressway, so we ask for your understanding and cooperation.
