2. Detour

For detours, please refer to the attached document [PDF: 225KB].
The detour will increase travel time, so please allow yourself plenty of time when traveling.

3. Construction overview

In the entrance lane and exit lane of the Hokuriku Expressway Kakizaki IC, we will carry out demolition work due to the replacement of the roof of the toll booth. Since this roof covers all lanes, all entrances and exits must be closed to carry out the work.
Therefore, in order to minimize inconvenience to our customers, we will close the building on weekday evenings when traffic is low and carry out construction intensively and efficiently. This is necessary for the safe and comfortable use of Expressway, so we ask for your understanding and cooperation.
