note)
  • Traffic volume is the total cross-sectional traffic volume of all vehicle types between Kawasaki Ukishima JCT and Umihotaru PA, including vehicles other than ETC vehicles (traffic counter [preliminary value from a traffic volume (approximate number) automatic measurement device installed on the road])
  • Last year's March 20, 2008 (Thursday/holiday) was a stepping stone holiday, so it was excluded from the comparison.
  • The previous week, Saturday, March 14, 2009, was excluded from the comparison because the traffic volume was low due to the suspension of traffic due to strong winds.
  • Figures in parentheses are classified as small cars by the traffic counter.

We will inform you of the traffic jam situation from March 20th (Friday) to 22nd (Sunday) together with the traffic volume on March 23rd (Monday).
