- The 10th "Highway Communication in Tohoku" Let's do our best Tohoku! ~Kizuna~ Held at Sendai Kotodai Park
August 26, 2011
East Nippon Expressway Co., Ltd.
Tohoku Regional Head Office
NEXCO EAST Tohoku Regional Head Office (Aoba Ward, Sendai City) will hold Highway Communication in Tohoku 2011 at Sendai Kotodai Park.
Highway communication is a plan to directly introduce the “uniqueness of the area” that you can not experience unless you go to the area, from all of the people in the area to enjoy the charm of Tohoku all-in-one and rediscover it. ..
In addition, this year, we will give our customers a "Ganbaro Tohoku!~Kizuna~" wristband in the hope that they will have one pledge to recover from the Great East Japan Earthquake and become a driving force for even greater recovery. I will.
In addition, a postscript of the members of the Self-Defense Forces who are engaged in disaster relief activities in service areas after the earthquake and those who use the Expressway will be displayed.
The number of visitors for this year is expected to be approximately 50,000 in two days.
