The Daiba Route (台場線, Daiba-sen), signed as Route 11, is one of the tolled routes of the Shuto Expressway system serving the Greater Tokyo Area. Route 11 runs from Shibaura Junction (with the Haneda Route) in Minato-ku and runs for 3.9 km through the Rainbow Bridge. Route 11 ends at the Ariake Junction connecting with the Bayshore Route in Kōtō-ku.
Originally, the route number was "12" in urban planning.
Route description
It runs through Rainbow Bridge which is renowned for its scenery, so sometimes, especially on holidays, a high concentration of cars on the bridge causes traffic congestion.[ citation needed]
History
The entirety of the Daiba Route was opened to traffic on 26 August 1993. Instead of being opened in phases, like many of the other routes in the Shuto Expressway network. [1]
