Tokyo Olympics / Para Signboard indicating the traffic of related vehicles on a road in Tokyo February 9:56
A sign was set up on July 7 to show that vehicles related to the Games will pass on roads in Tokyo to gain an understanding of how to reduce traffic congestion at the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics.
On the 7th, a 10km section of the Tokyo Metropolitan Expressway Wangan Line from the waterfront area where the athlete village and the competition venue are located to Haneda Airport, a cherry-colored sign marked "TOKYO 2020" indicating that vehicles related to the tournament will pass. Was set up.
The route for athletes and staff to travel between the athlete village and the competition venue at the Kotoshinoko Tokyo is 1,360 km, mainly in Tokyo, and `` dedicated lane '' where traffic other than tournament related vehicles is prohibited There is a "priority lane" that must give way to vehicles related to the tournament, but there are sections where such restrictions are not applied, so the issue is how to reduce congestion and ensure smooth transportation.
The Organizing Committee says, "I would like people to know that the road on which this signboard is installed will be used by people involved in the Tokyo Games to move around, so that they can use it at different times."
These signs will be installed in about 2,200 places including general roads in the future.
