Niseko Town, there is a large amount of snowfall during the winter season and the road width is narrow, and it is necessary to ensure the safety of pedestrians in the winter season.
Also, in town roads in central urban areas, maintenance of sidewalks and the like has been delayed, and maintenance is required in anticipation of the arrival of a long-lived society.
For these reasons, road improvement that emphasizes pedestrian safety, comfort, etc. is required from now on, such as promoting barrier freeization.

Niseko Town Within, the National Highway No. 5 to cross from east to west as the main line, through Michimichi 8 routes, this has been contact Machido 181 routes. With the exception of national roads, maintenance has not been completed in response to traffic in recent years. In particular, town roads also require secondary improvements such as improvement and paving.
There is also a need to develop regional farm road networks to respond to today's agricultural machines becoming larger and increasing the scale of distribution forms of agricultural products and agricultural materials. However, including the improvement of branch farm roads is still not enough, maintenance is required according to the town road development plan.
In addition, from the improvement of traffic access of tourists and the improvement of the convenience of townspeople, it is required to enrich the wide area transportation network, especially the development of high-speed transportation system is an issue.

The Niseko Heliport was initially set up as part of the modernization of agriculture and emergency transport systems, as well as passenger transport between Niseko Town and major cities in Hokkaido. However, it is currently used mainly for sightseeing, patrol / survey of ground facilities, refueling, etc., and further promotion of usage and reduction of maintenance costs are required.

People take top priority and promote road creation that makes fun walking, as well as enhancement and convenience of disaster prevention functions.
For that reason, we will promote the improvement and improvement of transportation facilities for pedestrians who not only have a simple transport function but also enhanced the value of walking and the community function of the road.

We will strive to create a networked transportation system for roads, farm roads, heliports, railroads, etc., where production infrastructure improvement and living environment improvement are integrated. In addition, while promoting wide-area cooperation, we will consider examining usage promotion etc.

In order to realize a high-speed transportation system, we promote requested activities such as expressway, maintenance bullet train, etc.
