In the roadside
station called “Michi-no-eki”, local towns as a nucleus are places having both
the functions of three called "a local cooperation function" to
cooperate "the information dispatch function" for a road user and
local people "the break function" for road users at a roadside
station in the road installations where local promotion facilities were united
with a rest area registered by Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport.
On November 5,
2015, it is registered 1,079 places in Japan.
Conventionally, the
public rest station of the public way hardly existed whereas a service area
(SA) and parking area (PA) which were the rest station which anyone could use
freely in the expressway for 24 hours were maintained.
To drive long
distance has been increased by progress of the motorization, and, like SA, the
PA of the expressway, a rest area available freely came to be demanded from
anyone on a general road for 24 hours.
At each roadside
station, the person nearby and tourist can enjoy it for a famous local
products, local fresh vegetables and others.
If you drive in
Japan, please stop at the “Michi-no-eki” for your rest.
