Survey of cars outside the prefecture Nagano prefecture's new corona requesting self-restraint April 25 12:20 on April 25

To prevent the spread of the new coronavirus, Nagano Prefecture embarked on an extraordinary campaign to reduce the number of visitors during the long holidays and began a survey on the number of vehicles outside the prefecture starting on the 25th.

At the intersection near the exit of the Nagano Interchange in Nagano City, the prefecture staff posted a placard stating "Requesting refraining from traffic" and investigated the license plate of the vehicle that was running.

The survey mainly focused on passenger cars excluding trucks. Most of the cars in the prefecture had a number in the morning, but some cars from Gunma and Kanagawa prefectures were also found.

In Nagano prefecture, most of the infected people are people who came and went from outside the prefecture, their families, etc., and the prefecture called it "Shinshu's sightseeing is closed" and visited Nagano prefecture during sightseeing and homecoming even during large holidays. We are working on an unusual campaign that calls for no one.

Car number surveys will be conducted at major interchanges and roadside stations in Nagano Prefecture, and we will look for places with a large number of cars outside the prefecture and consider effective measures.

In addition, we will conduct patrols at major tourist destinations such as Zenkoji Temple and Matsumoto Castle to seek refrain from tourism.

Satoshi Otsuki, director of the Tourist Attraction Division of Nagano Prefecture, said, "It is difficult to take such a response at the time of calling to visit tourists every year, but I want you to understand it to prevent the spread of infection." .
