NEXCO to Conduct Intensive Construction on the Shin-Meishin Expressway from May 11 to June 30

Central Nippon Expressway Company (NEXCO Central Japan) and West Nippon Expressway Company (NEXCO West Japan) will carry out intensive construction on the Shin-Meishin Expressway from 11:00 p.m. on May 11 until 6:00 a.m. on June 30.

The works will target both inbound and outbound lanes between Komono Interchange (IC) and Kusatsu Junction (JCT), as well as the outbound lanes between Kameyama JCT and Kameyama-nishi JCT. They will conduct necessary works to enhance driving safety and comfort, and to prepare for widening the Shin-Meishin Expressway to six lanes. Lane restrictions, nighttime closures, and closures of ICs, JCTs, and parking areas (PAs) will be implemented.

During the restriction period, traffic congestion is expected from early morning until late at night, and during some periods the number of available lanes in one direction will be reduced from three to one. Drivers are being asked to use alternative routes such as the Tomei Expressway, Meishin Expressway, Nagoya Expressway No. 2 Ring Road (Nagoya Daini Kanjo Expressway), Higashi-Meihan Expressway, Meihan National Highway, and Nagoya Expressway. Toll adjustments will also be implemented.
