Route description[]

The Matsubara Route at Miyake Junction

The Matsubara Route travels in a northwest to southeast direction from the Chūō ward of Osaka, beginning at a junction with the Loop Route, to a junction with the Hanwa Expressway, Kinki Expressway, and Nishi-Meihan Expressway in the city of Matsubara. Serving as the primary expressway route from central Osaka to Matsubara and points beyond in eastern Osaka Prefecture and Nara Prefecture, the highway winds its way through the wards of Osaka. Much of this section of the expressway lies above the Tanimachi Line of the Osaka Metro between Abeno Station and Kire-Uriwari Station. After crossing over the Yamato River into Matsubara, the expressway has a junction with Yamatogawa Route that parallels the river from the junction to its end near Osaka Bay. Before ending at the junction with the Hanwa Expressway, Kinki Expressway, and Nishi-Meihan Expressway, the expressway briefly crosses back into the city of Osaka before returning into Matsubara where the junction lies.[1] The expressway has a total length of 12.1 kilometers (7.5 mi).[2]

History[]

The first section of the expressway near the Loop Route was completed in 1970. The majority of the expressway was completed by 1980 after the opening of an 11.2-kilometer-long (7.0 mi) section.[3] A mini parking area once operated between Miyake and Matsubara junctions,[4] it has since been removed.[5] On 21 March 2013, the expressway was linked to the Yamatogawa Route at Miyake Junction.[6]

List of interchanges[]

The entire expressway lies within Osaka Prefecture.
