Please use ETC vehicles.
If you enter an ETC toll gate when ETC cannot be used (e.g., when the ETC on-board unit is not installed or the ETC card is not inserted), do not back up; instead, go through the lane marked "ETC/Support" or "Support", stop temporarily, and follow the on-site signs and instructions of the attendants.
When ETC lanes are closed due to facility inspections, etc., ETC-equipped vehicles should also use the support lanes.
For details on how to use the service, please visit NEXCO EAST official website "DraPla."
