It looks like this is actually part of the Yaesu Route? --SPUI (T - C) 14:37, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

They are managed by different entities and the Tokyo Kosoku-doro is actually untolled. There are toll barriers between the Shuto routes and this road. Polaron | Talk 14:44, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

Some more details: the Tokyo Kosoku-doro section is from Nishi-ginza junction to just after the Shimbashi exit. It looks like the jurisdiction changes at Showa-dori. The remaining highway until Shiodome junction is again designated as the Yaesu Route (i.e. Yaesu Route actually has 2 segments which are connected by the Tokyo Expressway).

Wow. Looks like I may have to make a map of this. Is there an article at ja: to interwiki this to? Also, should it be removed from Category:Shuto Expressway? --SPUI (T - C) 16:32, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

I've added the interwiki link to the corresponding ja article. Polaron | Talk 17:01, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

The Tokyo Expressway looking west towards Nishi-Ginza Junction

• ... that Japan's oldest expressway is going to be transformed into a park?

• Source: Portions of the highway were opened in 1959, making it the oldest expressway in Japan... The closure is slated to convert the elevated expressway right of way into an elevated park similar to the Coulée verte René-Dumont in Paris.

• Article is new and long enough (expansion 374 B → 3108 B, 8.31×). Hook is interesting and cited (a note: if the quote given as the source above is quoting the article, we're good; if it's quoting the source, then the article should be re-worded to avoid direct copying. I'd check this myself but I'm not able to read the source and I don't want to pass judgement based on a translated webpage). No issues from Earwig and the article's sourcing as a whole looks solid. QPQ has been completed, so this will be GTG as soon as I can get confirmation that the article's wording isn't copied from the source (I assume it isn't, just want to cover my bases).

  • @PCN02WPS: Thanks for reviewing this nomination with diligence. The above quote is from various points of the article. ❯❯❯ Mccunicano☕️ 00:16, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
    • okay, that's what I figured but I just wanted to make sure. In that case, the source for the hook is provided and I will AGF since it's foreign-language, meaning the nomination is good to go! PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 04:05, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
