The section where this work will be carried out is one lane, and as normal lane restrictions will not allow for the work to be carried out, it will be necessary to close the ramps to carry out the work. Therefore, in order to minimize inconvenience to customers, the ramps will be closed at night on weekdays when traffic volume is low, and the work will be carried out in a concentrated and efficient manner. This work is necessary to ensure safe and comfortable use of Expressway, so we ask for your understanding and cooperation.
