ETC Service Restored After Traffic Delays on Expressways

NEXCO Central Japan resumed ETC service at toll booths on the Tomei Expressway, Chuo Expressway, and other roads after a system issue. On Sunday, April 6, a failure in the ETC control system at interchanges stopped ETC use and caused heavy traffic jams. Crews finished emergency repairs at all toll booths by 2:00 p.m. on Monday, April 7. A system update on April 5 caused the problem. NEXCO Central Japan apologized sincerely for the inconvenience.
