* From the 1990s to the early 2000s, it was positioned as a time to try a more concrete project approach from a rough and comprehensive point of view based on the survey materials so far, and various publicity in Japan and overseas. We have been making efforts in enlightenment activities.Based on these results, we are currently formulating a second business plan while further studying.

Notice of business succession

Since its advocacy in 1981, this project has been under the direction and supervision of the International Highway Construction Corporation.As of January 2009, the International Highway Foundation has taken over the business.
