2. Construction overview
Tohoku Expressway Traffic congestion countermeasure work will be implemented on the ramps from Kawaguchi JCT to the outer ring road and from Ken-O Road Kuki Shiraoka JCT to Tohoku Expressway. As shown in the diagram below, colored pavement will be paved before the turnouts to facilitate smoother travel.
Since the construction work cannot be carried out with the normal lane restrictions, it is necessary to close the ramp for the work. 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.
