Expressway access

Nagoya is situated near the Tomei, Chuo and Meishin expressways. Use the Toimei Expressway if you come from Tokyo, and the Meishin Expressway from the Kansai area. The opening of the New Meishin Expressway in February 2008, relieved traffic congestion on the Tomei and Meishin expressways, and the full opening of the Tokai-Hokuriku Expressway slated for July 2008, will make trips to Toyama and Ishikawa prefectures in the Hokuriku Region more convenient.
