3. Construction overview

Kan-Etsu Expressway Pavement repair work will be performed on the Maebashi IC exit ramp due to damage to the road surface. Since the section to be repaired is a single lane, it is necessary to close the ramp for the work since the work cannot be carried out under the normal lane restrictions.
Therefore, in order to minimize inconvenience to customers, the ramp will be closed during the nighttime on weekdays when traffic volume is low, so that the work can be carried out in an intensive and efficient manner. We ask for your understanding and cooperation as this work is necessary for the safe and comfortable use of Expressway.
