Shuto Expressway

Network of toll expressways in the Greater Tokyo area

About

The Shuto Expressway (首都高速道路, Shuto Kōsoku-dōro; "Metropolitan Expressway", lit. "Capital Expressway") is a network of tolled expressways in the Greater Tokyo Area of Japan. It is operated and maintained by the Metropolitan Expressway Company Limited (首都高速道路株式会社, Shuto Kōsoku-dōro Kabushiki-gaisha).

Most routes are grade separated and have many sharp curves and multi-lane merges that require caution to drive safely. The speed limit is 60 km/h on most routes, 80 km/h on the Bayshore Route, and 50 km/h on the Inner Circular Route.
