〜Road projects that vitalize the local community〜

A series of continuous tunnels and bridges…
This is a construction site of massive scale, where work is ongoing to build three tunnels and two bridges.
At this site, visitors can see tunnel excavation and bridge construction work that they wouldn’t normally be able to see.
This is a seasonal tour that you can only enjoy now.
What’s more, this region is Miyazaki’s mecca for tourism.
See places like Udo Shrine, Obi Castle Ruins, Horikiri Pass, Kitago Hot Springs, Sun Messe Nichinan, Aoshima, Kodomo no Kuni, and Cape Toi.
Miyazaki Prefecture and the cities of Miyazaki, Nichinan and Kushima are working together to revitalize the region, by promoting cultural exchanges through tourism.
Next time you’re sightseeing in Miyazaki, come to the construction site of the Higashikyushu Expressway and the construction site for the Nichinan Disaster Prevention Highway (North Section), on National Highway 220!
Over the past few years, around 1,500 people have come to visit, including students, community residents and so on.
