Route 1 (Shuto Expressway)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Route 1 is one of the radial routes of the Shuto Expressway system in the Tokyo area. Route 1 has two segments: a northern segment (known as the Ueno Route) connecting Chūō-ku to Taito-ku via Ueno; and a southern segment (known as the Haneda Route) connecting Minato-ku to Haneda in Ota-ku. The two segments are connected by the Inner Circular Route.
