2. Detour

For detour information, please refer to the attached document [PDF: 221KB].
The detour will increase the travel time, so please allow plenty of time for your trip.

3. Construction overview

In the entrance lane and exit lane of the Hokuriku Expressway Kakizaki IC, we will carry out roof installation work to replace 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.
