West Nippon Expressway Company (NEXCO West Japan) will lift the closure on the Kyushu Expressway from around 6 a.m. on August 14.
The section to be reopened is between Matsubase Interchange (IC) and Ebino IC. This will allow general vehicles to travel on the entire Kyushu Expressway.
At Kawata Bridge, located between Miyahara Service Area (SA) and Yatsushiro IC, part of the bridge girders on the outbound lanes must be replaced after being severely deformed by an earthquake. As a result, only the inbound lanes will be used, with two-way traffic implemented on part of the section. Congestion is expected near the two-way traffic section, and drivers using this route are being urged to avoid peak travel days and times.
