3 Reasons for implementing traffic closures
The amount of snowfall in Sapporo city and the amount of snowfall due to the influence of low temperatures are much higher than in the average year, and even on the Expressway (continuous elevated sections) in Sapporo city, a large amount of snow is accumulated on the shoulders.
Due to further snowfall, the accumulated snow may not fit on the shoulders of the main line, which may hinder smooth traffic, so we will close the road at night when traffic is light and concentrate snow removal.
