東名復旧作業やや遅れ 大臣が視察
[2009/08/12 18:05]
１１日の地震によって斜面が崩落する大きな被害が出た牧之原市の東名高速道路での復旧作業は、予定よりもやや遅れています。
１２日は金子・国土交通大臣が現地を視察に訪れました。
１１日発生した震度６弱の地震によって崩落した東名高速道路牧之原サービスエリア付近では現在、上下線とも復旧作業が続けられています。中日本高速道路によると、東名が開通して以来、これだけの崩落は例がないということで、東名は現在も現場付近が通行止めとなっています。
復旧工事はやや遅れていて、当初、１２日の２４時までには終わると見られていた工事は１３日の午後までかかるということです。道路の開通は、１３日の午前に予定されていましたが、中日本高速道路では「１３日の、できるだけ早い時間の開通を目指す」としています。
また、１２日は麻生総理大臣から速やかな復旧を目指すよう支持された金子一義・国土交通大臣が現地を訪れ、ＮＥＸＣＯ中日本の会長、社長などから被害の状況や復旧作業の進み具合について説明を受けました。
金子大臣はまた、お盆の特別割り引きについて、東名高速をいったん下りたり、中央道を使うなどして事故現場を迂回した車については、１０００円で乗り続けられるようにしたことを明らかにしました。

The Meteorological Agency said that while the temblor will not lead to the massive quake feared in the Tokai region — the so-called Tokai quake — it will further study the data on this quake.
There were no reports of deaths or missing people, the National Police Agency said.
Most of the injures occurred in Shizuoka Prefecture, where 103 people were hurt.
Four injuries were reported in Aichi and Kanagawa prefectures and one in Tokyo, local authorities said. Three among those in Shizuoka were seriously injured, they said.
About 3,340 homes were damaged by the quake, the Fire and Disaster Management Agency said.
Tsunami up to 60 cm high were observed in Shizuoka Prefecture, the Meteorological Agency said. It issued tsunami warnings shortly after the quake, but they were withdrawn after 7 a.m.
Elsewhere, the search resumed for 14 people missing in the wake of flooding and mudslides triggered by Typhoon Etau.
The earthquake, which originated about 23 km under the surface of the sea in Suruga Bay, measured a lower 6 on the Japanese seismic scale to 7 at several points in Shizuoka including Izu, Yaizu, Omaezaki and Makinohara, the Meteorological Agency said.
It was the first time since 1944 that a quake stronger than 6 was observed in Shizuoka Prefecture.
The No. 4 and No. 5 reactors at the Hamaoka nuclear plant in Omaezaki were automatically halted, and the radiation level in the No. 5 reactor building temporarily rose, but there was no leakage, according to Chubu Electric Power Co.
"As the reactors were suspended as planned, we see no problems in their quake-resistance," a Chubu Electric official said.
Prime Minister Taro Aso told members of a task force set up at the prime minister's office to collect information about the quake,

A roughly 100-meter stretch of the shoulder and adjacent lane on the Tomei Expressway collapsed in Makinohara, Shizuoka Prefecture, and parts of the highway surface were raised some 10 cm at the Kikugawa interchange, police said.

Authorities said they would get the expressway up and running by midnight Wednesday.
In Omaezaki, pipes burst at several points and water supplies were cut off, while in the cities of Shizuoka, Kakegawa and Shimada, electricity was cut off at a combined 9,500 households, according to the municipal governments there and Chubu Electric.
