2. Detour

For information on alternative routes, please refer to the attached document [PDF: 430KB].
The detour will increase your travel time, so please allow extra time for your journey.

3. Construction overview

Ban-Etsu Expressway Toll booth roof reconstruction work will be carried out on the entrance and exit lanes of the Bandai-Atami toll booth. Since there are only two lanes at the entrance and two lanes at the exit of the tollgate, it is necessary to close the entrance and exit ramps of Bandai-Atami IC in order to carry out the construction work. Therefore, we will close the ramps during the nighttime on weekdays when traffic volume is low, in order to concentrate and efficiently carry out the construction work. We ask for your understanding and cooperation as this work is necessary for the safe and comfortable use of Expressway.
