NEXCO EAST In Kanto Regional Head Office (Taito-ku, Tokyo), Misato Minami Interchange (IC) of Gaikan Expressway (Outer Ring Road) is currently at Takaya Junction (JCT) (tentative name). ) Is being carried out.

In constructing the Keiyo JCT (tentative name) that connects this outer ring road and the Keiyo Road, a part of the Keiyo Road Shinozaki gateway-Ichikawa IC was diverted from December 2009 (a detour road), but it was a detour. As the construction planned to be implemented during the period will be completed, lane switching work will be carried out to return the detour road (Out-bound) heading for Chiba to the original Keiyo Road position as follows.

Due to traffic restrictions that reduce the number of lanes during construction, there may be periods when traffic congestion is expected.

When you go out, please allow yourself time and use the parallel detours to the Higashi-Kanto Expressway and public transportation.

We apologize for the inconvenience, and we appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
