Private road maintenance subsidy program

Toward a private road maintenance system

This is a system to subsidize 9/10 of the construction cost when local people maintain pavement, etc. on private roads that cannot be made into public roads due to structural problems such as land relations and road width.
In addition, in the maintenance work of the lower slope of the road (so-called cliff), there are some restrictions on the rate and scale of subsidies.
The details are described in the following section, but if you would like a detailed explanation, please contact the Public Works Office office.

Road targeted for maintenance furtherance is used by many citizens and meets the next condition.
However, in principle, roads built by large-scale development, etc., it may not be applicable, so please consult with the counter.

1. This is a private road that is used by the local community as a road for daily commuting, commuting, going to school, shopping, hospitals, meeting places, etc. In addition, it is applicable when road connecting to the private road is already paved.
2. On the private road where maintenance is desired, there is no underground buried object that interferes with pavement work, and the upper slope (so-called cliff) in contact with the private road is protected so that it does not hinder pavement work. In addition, in sewer treatment area, we assume that appropriate sewer pipe (public sewer) is complete.
3. Private roads that require redevelopment after approximately 10 years are maintained by private road maintenance subsidies and maintenance systems.

1. We support 9/10 of construction cost necessary for pavement construction. However, relocation work of underground buried objects (gas pipes other than drainage channels, water pipes, etc.) is not eligible for the subsidy.
2. Among incidental works, we will support half of the construction cost for the lower slope (so-called cliff) maintenance work. In addition, the grant amount per case is limited to 3 million yen.

There are various types of pavement work depending on the road conditions, but please consult Public Works Office for the selection.
