Hello、munejyuka。

It is Sunday, August 22, 2021.。

Elementary schools in the Kinki region、In junior high school、I think some places will start school next week.、For many people, this is the last weekend of summer vacation.

August 22, 2021、We have confirmed the condition of expressways in the Kinki region on Sunday.。

August 22, 2021、sunday morning、What is the condition of expressways in the Kinki region?

August 22, 2021、Sunday morning after 7am、What is the status of expressways in the Kinki region?、

No traffic jams

was。

Going down Yuasa Gobo Road, which is always congested at this time of year.、There was no traffic jam on the westbound Hanshin Expressway No. 3 Kobe Line, which is congested regardless of weekdays or holidays.。

There is a high possibility that there will be traffic jams on the westbound Hanshin Expressway No. 3 Kobe Line...

What is the reason for less traffic congestion?

In many places, you can only go swimming in the sea until Obon.、I think there will be less traffic jams than in previous years.。

I think there are two possible reasons.。

·Impact of COVID-19

・The weather is rainy

I don't think I need to explain the impact of the new coronavirus any further.。
Is it in the sense of restricting the movement of people?、Expressway holiday discount period continues。

the day before yesterday、It has been decided that the no holiday discount policy will be extended until September 12, 2021.。

together、It's been raining since last week。

It doesn't feel like midsummer like usual.。The highest temperature in southern Osaka yesterday was 23 degrees.。

Regardless of the temperature、I think many people are restricted from going out when it rains.

Summary

・August 22, 2021、There was no traffic congestion on expressways in the Kinki region after 7 a.m. on Sunday morning.

・It seems that many people are restricted from going out due to the effects of the new coronavirus.

・If the weather is forecast to be rainy or cloudy、It may be influenced by the fact that this is actually the case.

Is it due to the influence of the new coronavirus?。

Not only in heavily populated areas、The number of infected people is increasing in other areas as well.。

I would like to take all possible measures.。

I just hope that the new coronavirus will come to an end soon.。

Please read to the end、thank you very much!
