Japan National Route 246, National highway in Chiyoda, Japan.
Japan National Route 246 is a national highway in Japan running from Chiyoda in Tokyo to Numazu in Shizuoka. It passes through densely built residential neighborhoods, commercial zones, and quieter suburban stretches along its entire length.
This route was established in 1956 as part of the national road network and served the postwar development of the region. It helped encourage economic growth between Tokyo and the western prefectures.
The highway section near Meiji Jingu outer gardens in Shibuya gained recognition through its inclusion in multiple Gran Turismo video game series.
Regular monitoring keeps traffic moving steadily even during morning and evening rush hours. The road connects multiple train lines and neighborhoods, making it easier for visitors to orient themselves.
A section near the outer garden of Meiji Shrine in Shibuya appears in several Gran Turismo video game titles. This digital representation made the stretch known worldwide, especially among racing game fans.
