The construction of an overhead crossing at an intersection
aims to ease traffic congestion in an urban area.
However, traffic congestion tends to worsen during the
construction period that takes one to two years by a conventional
construction method. The people living in the
vicinity are forced to put up with the inconvenience. A
breakthrough technology has long been desired for overhead
crossing construction, which will quickly realize the
economic effect and lessen the burden on the environment
without bringing inconvenience to the neighborhood.
We have developed a construction method of an
overhead crossing called "SMArt Crossing" in cooperation
with Asanuma Corporation in order to solve the
potential problems involved in conventional construction.
The features of the new construction method are:
1) A right turn lane is secured to avoid traffic congestion
during a construction period.
2) The construction period is reduced to four months.
3) The construction of an overhead crossing at an intersection
is implemented overnight. |
