In Futaba Town, the only evacuation instruction following the nuclear accident has continued throughout the entire area, and this is the first cancellation.
In Futaba Town, the evacuation orders are scheduled to be canceled in the “evacuation instruction cancellation preparation area” in the northeastern part of the town, the Futaba Station area on the JR Joban Line, and the town road that connects these areas.

On March 14th, resumption of operation is being considered in the section including the JR Joban Line Futaba Station, and the Joban Futaba Interchange on the Joban Expressway is scheduled to open in early March.

In addition, with this cancellation, all the areas other than the difficult-to-return areas will be eliminated from the three evacuation instruction areas set in 11 municipalities in the prefecture according to the radiation dose one year after the nuclear accident.
