East Nippon Expressway Co., Ltd.
Niigata Regional Head Office
NEXCO EAST Niigata Regional Head Office (Chuo-ku, Niigata City) is collaborating with HUB SAUNA Co., Ltd. (Chuo-ku, Niigata City) to hold the first outdoor sauna event in Expressway in Japan at E7 Nihonkai-Tohoku Expressway (Nitto-do) Hoei Service Area (SA) (Out-bound Line) Una".
This initiative maximizes the attractiveness of Hoei SA, which has a large site rich in greenery, and allows customers to have a new experience that has never been seen before. On the day of the event, a kitchen car will also be open, so you can enjoy your meal even at Toyoei SA, which does not have a business store.
Our volunteer project members of our young employees have been preparing to provide a new attraction of SA. We look forward to seeing you there.
Customers who do not use the sauna can also use SA as usual.

5. Background of the project
Issues facing Toyosaka SA
This SA is located in Kita-ku, Niigata City, which is currently being developed as a commuter town.
Although it is easily accessible, about 30 minutes by car from central Niigata, the main facilities are only toilets, so the appeal of the lawn area and other parts of the SA is not being maximized. This concern was the basis for the current planning process.
Why a sauna event?
In recent years, there has been growing interest in refreshing oneself through outdoor saunas.
Toyoei SA has a large parkland and beautiful lawns, and the Agano River flows nearby, allowing a refreshing breeze to blow through.
We felt that these conditions were ideal for an outdoor sauna event and would enable us to provide a new Expressway and rest facility space, so we decided to go ahead with the event.
