3. Construction overview

Joban Expressway Out-bound Pavement repair work will be performed at the entrance ramp to the Yamamoto IC. The section where this work will be performed is an acceleration lane, and since the work cannot be performed with normal lane restrictions, it is necessary to close the ramp to perform the work.
Therefore, in order to minimize inconvenience to our customers, we will close the ramps during the nighttime on weekdays when traffic volume is low in order to implement the work in an intensive and efficient manner. We ask for your understanding and cooperation as this work is necessary for the safe and comfortable use of Expressway.
