How to use transit adjustment
ETC customers
- For customers using ETC, please drive wirelessly at designated outflow ICs, and also wirelessly drive at re-inflow ICs. (Transfer certificates are not issued for ETC vehicles)
- ETC time zone discount will be applied, considering the transited journey as one.
Toll charges are adjusted at the time of billing, so they may differ from those displayed at the toll gate. - Insert the same ETC card for all journeys and pass through the ETC lane at the tollgate.
Customers such as cash
- Customers paying with cash, etc. should receive a "transfer certificate" at the outflow designated IC, then take a "transit ticket" at the re-inflow IC, and then take the "transition certificate" at the toll booth where they pay the toll for the first time. Please hand over your ``book'' and ``traffic ticket.''
Common to ETC and cash customers
- If the suspension of traffic is released after the outflow designated IC is released, the fare will be adjusted even if it is re-introduced from the IC (including the outflow designated IC) in the closed road section in the forward direction.
Four. Construction overview
On Ban-Etsu Expressway inbound and outbound lanes, between Aizu-Wakamatsu IC and Niigata Chuo JCT, we will be repairing damaged road surfaces and carrying out construction, inspection, and cleaning work on tunnel facilities in the simplified median strip section. As this section has one lane in each direction, the work will be carried out with a road closure. In order to minimize inconvenience to customers, the road will be closed at night on weekdays when traffic volume is low, and the work will be carried out in a concentrated and efficient manner. This work is necessary to ensure that you can use Expressway safely and comfortably, so we ask for your understanding and cooperation.

Regarding the closure of one lane on one side of Ban-Etsu Expressway
Generally, on Expressway with two lanes in each direction, lane restrictions are implemented as necessary to repair damaged road surfaces and inspect various facilities. The Ban-Etsu Expressway is a one-lane road, so road closures are essential for construction and inspections. For this reason, Ban-Etsu Expressway closes twice a year, in spring and autumn, excluding Golden Week and the summer peak season, to ensure safety and security on Expressway.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause our customers, and we appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
