Road name / route name

Meishin ExpresswayIs the road name (common name) of Komaki IC-Nishinomiya IC^[3].. The official route names based on the National Highway Law are from Tokyo to Kanagawa and Yamanashi prefectures.NaganoDesignated as a route to Hyogo prefecture via Gifu prefecture, Aichi prefecture, Shiga prefecture, Kyoto prefecture, Osaka prefectureChuo Expressway Nishinomiya Line(TokyoSuginami --Nishinomiya City, Hyogo Prefecture), and the Meishin Expressway is a part of it.^[3].

On the national expressway "highwayOnly Tomei / Meishin and Shin-Tomei / Shin-Meishin use the name. By the time the term "motorway" began to be used in the process of planning and constructing these roads, it was already widely referred to as the "expressway" in the private sector.Popular nameWas used and generally established, so it was exceptionally adopted.^{[4][Annotation 1]}.

IC number

現在のIC番号は、東名高速道路の東京ICからの通し番号であるが、開通当初の名神高速道路では西宮から小牧に向かって、西宮=1、尼崎=2、豊中=3、茨木=4、京都南=5 (5A/5B)、京都東=6、大津=7、栗東=8、八日市=9、彦根=10、関ケ原=11、大垣=12、一宮=13、小牧=14であった。このあたりのことは、運転免許更新時に配布されるRoad Safety AssociationThe remnants can be seen in the list of signs in the published traffic textbooks.1968It was changed to the current IC number in line with the opening of the Tomei Expressway in (43).^[5].

The reason why the IC number was assigned in this way is that the Komaki IC is directly connected to the Meishin Expressway as a result of the delay in determining the main route between Tokyo and Nagoya (decision to construct the Tomei Expressway) due to historical reasons. This is because the detailed decision on the installation of each IC / JCT on the Tomei Expressway was not in time for the Meishin Expressway to start operation, so the IC number had to be tentatively assigned within the Meishin Expressway. From such a thing,1968(43)4At the same time as the Tomei Expressway was put into service, it was reassigned to the current IC number. Also,Suita ICEven though he didn't even have an initial installation plan^{[Annotation 2]}The reason why the IC number (35) does not have a branch number is that the Suita IC was decided to be installed before the details of each IC / JCT of the Tomei Expressway were decided.^{[Annotation 3]}.

Relationship with Shin-Meishin Expressway

In addition, it snows strongly between the Meishin Yokaichi IC and the Ogaki IC.chainApproximately 8% of cars traveling east of Toyota in Aichi prefecture and west of Kusatsu in Shiga prefecture have shifted to Shin-Meishin Expressway due to restrictions.^[6].. Tokyo / Nagoya via Tomei / Meishin- Keihanshin OfExpress Bus("Dream”, Etc.), the conversion to the new Meishin is remarkable.

History

Planning / construction

The flow of road maintenance promotion in postwar Japan became a businessman and later a member of the House of Councilors.Seiichi TanakaIt was the National Land Development Transit Expressway concept led by the above, but as a parallel movement,Ministry of ConstructionAlso, based on the prewar motorway concept, the Tokyo-Kobe Expressway plan was started.^[12].

Around 1953 (Showa 28), the Ministry of Construction assumed the Tokaido route as the Tokyo-Nagoya highway plan for the Chuo Expressway route based on the Tanaka-led National Land Development Transit Expressway concept began to take shape. Published the "Tokyo-Kobe Toll Road Plan"^[13].. Since then, the controversy over the construction route, "Tokaido or Chuo Expressway," has gradually intensified.^[14],Japanese GovernmentWill limit the section to be implemented for the time being between Nagoya and Kobe, make the plan a toll road, and provide a loanWorld BankDecided to ask^[12].

In 1956 (Showa 31), the World Bank dispatched a research team headed by Ralph J. Watkins to investigate the feasibility of the Meishin Expressway.Watkins Report』, After advocating the construction of the Meishin Expressway, affirmed that the World Bank would lend a part of the construction cost, and recommended the Government of Japan to reform the road administration. There was a recommendation to triple the road budget^[12].. Borrowings from the World Bank had a long and stable borrowing period and low interest rates at that time.^[15].

The system of constructing and repaying by borrowing instead of national expense was the beginning of toll road construction by the road corporation method.^[15].

Initially, the design plan for the Meishin Expressway was carried out independently in Japan, based on the standards of the American Turnpike (toll road) and Interstate Highway (interstate road).AutobahnAlso served as a design engineerKusahel DorshAs a design engineer for the Meishin ExpresswayJapan Highway Public CorporationWithin, the design method changed drastically according to Dorsh's teachings.^[16].

Dorsh's recommendation, dispatched by the World Bank and to Japan as a design consultant, is to harmonize with the surrounding terrain in the linear design of highways.Clothoid curveOr adopt^{[Annotation 5][17]}, The interchange plan that had been designed up to that point was changed to a large-scale style, which changed the Japanese method that had no experience in highway design.^[18].

In October 1957 (Showa 32), the Ministry of Construction issued a construction order to the Japan Highway Public Corporation for the Komaki-Nishinomiya section based on the provisions of the National Land Development Transit Expressway Construction Law, and construction of the Meishin Expressway began. Was done^[19].. With this start of constructionJapanese highwayIs off to a start.

at that time,pavement TheconcretePavement was common, but with concrete pavementasphaltAsphalt pavement will be introduced on the Meishin Expressway after a comparative study of economic efficiency, durability, comfort, etc. with pavement.^[20].

EarthworkThen, we introduced mechanized construction in earnest and established performance regulations for the first time in addition to construction regulations.^[20]. Also,EmbankmentCross slope^{[Annotation 6]}After trial and error,machineIt is set to 1: 1.8, which allows rolling by, and is still the standard cross slope.^[20].

tunnelIn the construction of traditionally woodenSupportWas used,GeologyThe Kajiwara Tunnel and Tennozan Tunnel, which are badly affected by large earth pressure, are the first in Japan.H-section steelIntroduced^[20].archWith the introduction of support, large machines can be introduced, and safety and efficiency have been greatly improved.^[20].

Various other technologies were born by the construction of the Meishin Expressway, and are evolving and connected to the present.^[20].

Opening

Tokaido ShinkansenThe Meishin Expressway on July 1963, 38, the year before its opening. Ritto IC - Amagasaki ICThe opening of the interval (71.7 km) isJapanese highwayIt was the birth of the first highway in the history of its opening.The situation where a car runs on the road at 100 km / h is a big news that makes the world excited.^[2], The day before7/15At face value 10 to commemorate the opening of the Meishin ExpresswayYen OfCommemorative stampWas issued^[21].

From Ritto IC in April 1964 (Showa 39)Sekigahara ICIn September, the Ichinomiya IC on the east side and the Nishinomiya IC on the west side will open. 9年（昭和1965年）40月7日には、小牧IC - 一宮IC開通によって名神高速道路の小牧IC - 西宮ICの全線が完成し、これまで名古屋 - 阪神地域間の移動に自動車で1 - 5時間を要した時間が、6時間程で結ばれることになりOn July 2, XNUMX (Showa XNUMX), the entire Komaki IC --Ichinomiya IC opened and the entire line of the Komaki IC --Nishinomiya IC on the Meishin Expressway was completed. The time that took XNUMX hours will be connected in about XNUMX hours^[2], Nagoya-Keihanshin made it possible to travel by car on a day trip.

Since the expressway itself was a tourist attraction when it first opened,ShoulderでBox lunchEat and sprintAutomobileThere are now some quiet episodes, such as watching and taking a commemorative photo.^[22].. On the other hand, of the automobile at that timePerformanceWas unable to withstand high-speed continuous driving, and the driver was unfamiliar with high-speed driving.overheat,Out of gasA series of cars got stuck in. It is recorded that there were 10 broken cars due to overheating and other problems in the first 573 days alone.^[23].Standing wave phenomenon,Hydroplaning phenomenonKnowledge about tires in the high-speed range, such as, has not yet penetrated in general, so about thesepublic relationsActivities have also begun to take place.

Also, as soon as it was fully opened, it appeared at the same time.Toyota OfPassenger car,Toyopet Corona (RT40 series)But to showcase its performance and durabilityCampaignAs a result, we conducted a "10 km continuous high-speed driving public test" between Komaki and Nishinomiya (58 round trips in 276 days) and others.JNR highway bus exclusive vehicleAt the time of development, 100 km / h20 km continuous running in Japan was an issue, and each manufacturer was required to do so.^{[Annotation 7]}.

For the Tokyo-Nagoya section, which continues as a highway network,TokaidoBy routeDaiichi Tokai Expressway(Tomei Expressway) was built before the Chuo Expressway,1969With the opening of the entire Tomei Expressway in May, the section between Tokyo and NishinomiyaHighway national roadIt was directly connected with.Chuo Expressway Nishinomiya Lineas,1972(Showa 47) Komaki JCT opened in October,1982(Showa 57) DecemberKatsunuma IC - Kofu Showa ICWith the opening, all lines were opened.

The Meishin Expressway was opened before the Tomei Expressway in this way, but this was decided in advance.Tokyo - KobeAmongChuo ExpresswayIn constructionNagoyaEastTokaidoRoute (= currentTomei Expressway)WhenNakasendo-Koshu HighwayRoute (= currentChuo Expressway) Because it was violently rubbed depending on which one to build.^[24].

Therefore, by constructing the Nagoya-Nishinomiya section, which had already reached an agreement on the construction route, before the settlement was reached.^{[Annotation 8]}Aiming for early opening^[24].. In the end, both sides continued to insist on their own ideas without abandoning them.Japan Highway Public CorporationTook the curtain to build both Tomei and Chuo^[24].

This was the standard for highway lane width in the United States when highways were first introduced in Japan12.フ ィ ー トIs directly imported as it is, and is the standard unit of Japanese length.Metric systemIs the result of conversion to^[16].. Due to historical circumstances, the lane width of national expressways that have been deployed nationwide after the construction of the Meishin Expressway has been unified to 3.5 meters (excluding the central lane of three lanes) based on the metric system.^[16].

Unlike Tomei, the maximum speed is 80 km / hRestrictionSince there are many sections with, be careful not to overspeed.

• * 1: There is an uphill lane before and after Ibuki PA on the up line and in front of the Imasu tunnel on the down line.
• * 2: When heading from Shin-Meishin Expressway to Kyoto / Osaka via Kusatsu JCT, or from Keiji Bypass via Seta-higashi JCT to Hokuriku / Nagoya via this line or Shin-Meishin Expressway, be sure to Must pass through this sectionbottleneckIt has become. Therefore, vehicles from 2 lanes of Meishin (2 lanes) + Keiji Bypass (4 lanes) on the up line and 2 lanes of Meishin (2 lanes) + New Meishin (4 lanes) on the down line will be consolidated. Vehicle flow has deteriorated due to merging from junctions and parking areas, causing a lot of traffic congestion. Approximately one year and one month after the opening of the Shin-Meishin Expressway, the traffic was changed from three lanes on each side to four lanes on each side, but the traffic congestion has not been completely eliminated. It is expected that the traffic congestion will be resolved by the maintenance between Otsu JCT and Takatsuki JCT of the new Meishin Expressway. By the way, the section between Mt. Ooyamazaki JCT and Suita JCT was a bottleneck section for a long time. However, on March 1, 1, the Dainikeihan Road was fully opened, the bottleneck condition was resolved, and traffic congestion near Takatsuki BS and Suita JCT was alleviated.
• * 3: There is a climbing lane ahead of Takatsuki BS on the up line.
• * 4: The Senriyama tunnel used to be 70 km / h.

Traffic restrictions during snowfall

Since we are doing large-scale work 24 hours a day, it is normal in operation.タ イ ヤHowever, it is possible to pass through, but when the snowfall becomes stronger, fresh snow accumulates on the road surface at points away from the snow removal unit, which causes it.sherbetIt can be in a very dangerous situation, such as in a state or frozen state (which is also the reason for maintaining speed by the above-mentioned work vehicle regiment). If the snowfall becomes more intense and the snow removal cannot keep up, traffic closure measures will be taken.

Also, in the winter season around Sekigaharathe weatherSuddenly changed and suddenlysnowA "guerrilla snow" phenomenon occurs in which the view is obstructed by falling. For this reason, NEXCO Central JapanTV / radio commercialThen, it is announced that "the Meishin of winter is a snowy country".

Due to the partial opening of the new Meishin Expressway on February 2008, 20, the Sekigahara and Maibara districts will be opened.DetourYou can now do it. Since it has become possible to run non-slip vehicles on the Shin-Meishin Expressway, which has relatively little snow damage, in recent years, in the case of heavy snowfall, chain regulation measures have been taken in the Sekigahara and Maibara areas as well.

As with the Tomei Expressway, there is heavy traffic and heavy traffic is heavy day and night, regardless of the time of year. For this reason, the road surface is damaged quickly, and the Meishin intensive construction with lane restrictions is carried out about once a year in late May. In this case, the traffic will be heavier than usual.

Although the construction period is different, in Tomei, which also has a lot of trafficTomei intensive constructionHowever, the Suita JCT on the Chugoku Expressway-Intensive construction on the Chugoku Expressway is underway near the Takarazuka IC. At the time of introduction, Meishin used to call it "refresh work" from 1991 (Heisei 3) to 2006 (18), but now it has changed its name to "intensive work" like the Tomei Expressway and Chugoku Expressway. ing.

Ikeda / Toyonaka city

On the Osaka side of Route 176, Ikeda City, Toyonaka City and Osaka City are connected, but as mentioned above, they are also parallel.Osaka Prefecture Route 10 Osaka Ikeda LineHas a wider number of lanes and more traffic.The section from Shin-Sangokubashi, which is the border between Toyonaka City and Osaka City, to 2-chome, Shiroyama-cho, Toyonaka City is a four-lane road with two lanes on each side.National Route 171,National Route 163As with some sections, there are many intersections that do not have pockets for turning right, and there are no medians, so you need to be careful when driving.HankyuIshibashi Osaka Station OfMinoh LineThere are two railroad crossings, "Prefectural Road South" and "Prefectural Road North", just below the place where the platform crosses with a viaduct, which is a remnant of the Prefectural Road Osaka Ikeda Line (first generation).

Najio Road

Najio Road is a 3 km long bypass road from Kamiyamaguchi, Yamaguchi-cho, Nishinomiya-shi to Sakaemachi 10.56-chome, Takarazuka-shi. In 1985 (Showa 60), the city plan was decided and commercialized.This section connects the northern part of Hanshin and the Hanshin metropolitan area, but there are no sidewalks and includes a section where traffic is restricted during abnormal weather.In addition, although it is a two-lane section with many curves, there is a traffic volume of 2 vehicles per day, of which 1 are large vehicles.Since this line, which was less damaged during the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, functioned as an alternative road, it is considered to be a road that should be promoted in the earthquake disaster reconstruction plan.^[17][18].

20157/261.4 km of Najio, Shiose-cho, Nishinomiya City was opened in Japan, and the congestion on the existing road was eased.9% of large vehicles have switched from the current road to bypass, and the neighborhoodJRNishinomiya Meisho StationThere are no more than 10 fixed-route buses that arrive for 50 minutes or more a month.^[19].

It is the time required when the entire Najio Road is opened, but according to the estimation released by the Hanshin National Highway Office (current), Takarazuka Station-Chugoku Expressway Nishinomiya Kita ICThe interval of 51 minutes (before the start of construction) will be shortened to 16 minutes after the opening of the entire line.When the improvement work of this Najio road is completed, the upper and lower four lanes have already been completed.Hakkei Junior High SchoolFrom the front intersectionNishinomiya Yamaguchi East LampTogether with the intersection and the section from Takarazuka City to the bypass of Ikeda City (described later), the four lanes above and below from Sanda City to Ikeda City will be completed.In addition, the two cities will be connected in about 4 minutes.

Takarazuka City-Bypass of Ikeda City

From Takarazuka City, Hyogo Prefecture to Ikeda City, Osaka Prefecture, there is an unnamed bypass apart from the old road.is thisOsaka ExpoImmediately before1970(45)3It was opened in Japan and functions as a bypass for the narrow main road from Takarazuka City to Ikeda City.At the beginning of the opening, the Hyogo prefecture side is in the opposite lane from the Inagawa Ohashi, which is the boundary between Hyogo prefecture and Osaka prefecture.Chinese motorwayTakarazuka ICThere were four lanes above and below only in the vicinity (Obama Bypass), but now it has been made into a viaduct with the Chugoku Expressway in the center and two lanes separated from each other.Also, if you go straight on this bypass from the Hyogo prefecture side toward Osaka, you will not join the main road again.Osaka Prefectural Route 2 Osaka Central Loop LineとOsaka Prefectural Road 10/Hyogo Prefectural Road 100 Osaka Ikeda LineMany cars use this route from the Takarazuka area to Osaka city (the central loop line isShin-MidosujiVia. ).

The road law setting for this bypass is to branch off from National Highway No. 176 at the Takarazuka Kagaku Theater intersection in Takarazuka City, and from the Toyoshima Minami 1-chome intersection (side road) in Ikeda City to National Highway No. 171 (main road / former 171). It will be an overlapping section and will merge again with National Highway No. 176 at the Ishibashi-Handaishita intersection in Ikeda city.The bypass managers are the Takarazuka Civil Engineering Office in Hyogo Prefecture and the Ikeda Civil Engineering Office in Osaka Prefecture.On the other hand, the main road running alongside this bypass remained a designated section under direct control until March 2020, 3 in Osaka Prefecture.
