The construction has been completed and it is now possible to walk. However, please be careful of the surrounding conditions as there are still ongoing construction areas in the vicinity.
******************************

There is a closure between Harinohama and Watanoha in North Oshika Peninsula due to reconstruction work on roads.
For your safety, when you want to get from Mr. Dairokuten in Onagawa to Watanoha area—as well as go between North Oshika and Onagawa on the MCT—please don’t take the route shown in green on the attached map. Instead, take the train between Urashuku Station and Watanoha Station, and walk the route shown in blue.
If you decide instead to walk along the national highway (National Route 398), please be very careful as it has sections without sidewalks and lots of traffic.
