Q

In each municipality, the sewer manhole cover has a distinctive design, but who is the origin of the manhole cover design in Yokohama City and who is the creator of the design?

Last Updated August 31, 2018

A

In Motoichi, we changed design of manhole cover to one of Yokohama's symbols "Bay Bridge" from October 1, 1997.

After drafting some design proposals in Shimo-Water Works Bureau, citizens voted at a facility tour event called "Sewer College" and selected it as a reference.
