About cancellation of road closure due to earth and sand disaster (5th report)

NEXCO EAST Tohoku Regional Head Office (Aoba-ku, Sendai city, Regional Head Office president: Mikio Kashima), from 1:35 on the Yamagata Expressway Shonai Airport IC to Sakata IC (upper and lower lines) from 1:35 on August 15 (Friday) due to the occurrence of a sediment disaster due to rain. We have been carrying out road closures, and we have been working to remove soil and respond to slope collapse points in preparation for secondary disasters, but since the safety of running on the main line was secured, we canceled the road closure at 16 o'clock today. I will let you know.

In addition, even after the suspension of the road closure, the road shoulder will be narrowed in the relevant section, so the regulation will be enforced. We apologize for the inconvenience, and we ask for your cooperation in safe driving.
