2. Detour

For detours, please refer to the attached document [PDF: 1.6MB].
The detour will increase travel time, so please allow yourself plenty of time when traveling.

3. Construction overview

Due to damage to the road surface at the Kashiwa IC and Yatabe IC of Joban Expressway, pavement repair work will be carried out. The section in which this work will be carried out is a single lane, and since the work cannot be carried out under normal lane restrictions, it is necessary to close the ramps to carry out the work.
Therefore, in order to minimize inconvenience to customers, we will close the ramps at night on weekdays when traffic volume is low, and carry out the work in a concentrated and efficient manner. This work is necessary to ensure that customers can use Expressway safely and comfortably, so we ask for your understanding and cooperation.
