3. Construction overview

Higashi Kanto road In-bound in line Sakura IC of the entrance ramp, because the damage to the road surface has occurred, will be carried out pavement repair work. The section where this work is to be carried out is one lane, and it is not possible to carry out the work under normal lane regulations, so it is necessary to close the lamp and carry out the work.
Therefore, in order to avoid inconvenience to customers as much as possible, we will close the lamps on weekday nights when there is little traffic, and carry out the construction intensively and efficiently. This work is necessary for you to use the Expressway safely and comfortably, so we ask for your understanding and cooperation.
