Role of Yokohama Ring Road, etc.
High-speed Kanagawa No. 7 Yokohama North Line and Yokohama Northwest Line will be connected to the Outer Ring Road via the Tomei Expressway, and the Yokohama Ring South Line will be connected to the Yokohama Shonan Road and other parts of the Tokyo metropolitan area as part of the Ken-O Expressway. By forming a network, access to various parts of the country, such as the Tohoku Expressway, the Kanetsu Expressway, and the Chuo Expressway, will be dramatically improved, and strengthen the international competitiveness of Yokohama Port, and the international container strategic port.
In addition, the improvement of the horizontal ring will secure multiple emergency transportation routes in the event of a disaster, thereby strengthening disaster prevention capabilities.
In addition, the strengthening of the road network is expected to reduce traffic congestion on existing roads, reduce travel time, and improve the environment.
The horizontal ring facilitates the flow of people and goods, supports the development of Yokohama, and greatly contributes to the safety and security of citizens.
Please take a look at the details.
Building permits (underground structures, etc.) based on Article 53 of the City Planning Act of the North Line and Northwest Lines
When building in the area of the city planning road, permission under Article 53 of the City Planning Act is required, but since the north and northwest lines have been maintained, permission has been granted by consulting with the facility manager. Consider it.
A brush with "ground right setting" in the right part (items related to rights other than ownership) such as a certificate of entry (registered copy) is a land with structures (underground facilities) underground. Basically, the landowner is the manager of the structure (underground facility), and the consultation destination is also the landowner.
