i-MOVEMENT "Innovative Expressway maintenance management utilizing next-generation technology"

project overview

With the introduction of cutting-edge ICT technology and robotics technology, the environment surrounding the Group has changed, such as changes in the social environment due to the declining birthrate and aging population and advances in digital technology, and the sophistication of information provision in light of diversifying customer needs. We are promoting the innovative project "i-MOVEMENT" that contributes to the evolution of Expressway mobility while responding to drastic changes.

Project logo concept

i-MOVEMENT

The gray part on the left is today's Expressway, the orange part on the right is the future Expressway evolved by i-MOVEMENT's efforts, the orange band in the center is the road that bundles 6 visions, the upper sphere is NEXCO CENTRAL Represents.
In this logo, i-MOVEMENT will Expressway and make a leap forward, i-MOVEMENT will serve as a "bridge" to connect the latest technology to the next generation, and NEXCO CENTRAL will be a regional revitalization. It expresses that it plays a central role such as conversion.
