Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni, in conjunction with Chugoku-Shikoku Defense Bureau, continues to make every possible effort to reduce the impact of on-base construction and related activities on the local community, to include the issue of traffic congestion.

Interested media are invited to film a couple of examples of these initiatives- a temporary construction-vehicle-only overpass which opened Oct. 1 and vehicle pool recently established aboard the installation to facilitate the influx of construction vehicles- the morning of Thursday, Oct. 10. 

News media desiring to attend this opportunity are asked to contact us at 0827-79-5551 by not later than 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 8, for escort.
