  • Urban Expressway
    Urban Expressway Roads for automobile exclusive use separated from open roads without crossing at grade are necessary to alleviate automobile congestion and eliminate through traffics from open roads. The Tokyo Metropolitan Government started the study in 1951, the Urban Expressway Network of 8 Routes, road with a length of approx. 71km, was approved as the City Planning for the first time in August 1959,and based on the recommendation for the construction of the Urban Expressway System by the Committee on Capital Construction in 1953, “Basic Policy for the Tokyo City Planning Urban Expressway” of the Ministry of Construction approved in 1957 and the consideration by the Task Force for the Tokyo City Planning Urban Expressway,. Since then, as there were additional new routes, extension of existing routes and a part of alignment change etc., the routes approved in the City Planning are 19 routes with 3 branch routes, of approx. 226km, as of Mar. 2013. Among the routes already approved in the City Planning, the following are currently in service: the Routes of No.1, No.2, No.2 Branch Route, No.3, No.4, No.4 Branch Route, No.5, No.6, No.7, No.8, No.9, No.12, Bay Shore Branch Route, Adachi Line, Katsushika-Edogawa Line, Bay Shore Route, Oji Line, Shinjuku Line, a part of Outer Circular Route (from Oizumi 5-chome to Oizumi 1-chome, Nerima Ward) and a part of Harumi Line (from Toyosu 6-chome to Ariake 2-chome, Koto Ward), total 17 routes, 3 branch routes, road length approx. 196km, are in service now.

  • Of Large-Scale Field Operational Test for “Automated Driving System”
    Press Release October 3, 2017 Cabinet Office Counsellor for Common Service Platform, Bureau of Science, Technology and Innovation Start of Large-Scale Field Operational Test for “Automated Driving System” “Automated Driving System,” part of the Cross-ministerial Strategic Innovation Promotion Program (SIP), has launched the Large-Scale Field Operational Test to accelerate the practical application of technologies necessary to implement the system. Over 20 organizations including Japanese and overseas automakers are participating in the Large-Scale Field Operational Test, which begins today and will be conducted progressively on the Tomei Expressway, Shin-Tomei Expressway, Shuto Expressway and Joban Expressway and on surface streets in the Tokyo waterfront area (see attached materials). 1. Developments to date In the SIP “Automated Driving System,” research and development has been progressing since fiscal 2014 aiming at reduction of the number of traffic accidents and realization of the Next Generation Transportation System through real-world application of the Automated Driving System, with a focus on five key technology fields as cooperation areas among industries, academia and governments: Dynamic Map１, HMI２, Cyber Security, Pedestrian Traffic Accident Reduction, and Next Generation Transport. 1. High-precision three-dimensional digital map for automated driving. 2. Human-Machine Interface: Safe and smooth technology interfaces in case of switching between human and system operation. 2. Overview of Large-Scale Field Operational Test Technologies researched and developed in the five above-mentioned focus areas will be tested to accelerate the practical application of the Automated Driving System in real environments of public roads, with the participation of automakers and other stakeholders. 1 The results of research and development will be reviewed by numerous stakeholders and advance to future R&D, and the participation of overseas manufacturers will promote international collaboration and global standardization.

Current available real time information is associated with present traffic condition. However, current real time information is not suitable for pre-trip decisions as the information does not factor in the time interval to joining the expressway network and this is subject to considerable prediction errors. This research involved the proposal of a method for matching historic traffic data with real-time traffic data as a means of predicting the travel times and bottleneck status immediately prior to departure.
