The Kitakyushu Urban Expressway might continue to collect tolls for another decade. The five-route expressway was initially planned to stop collecting tolls in 2023. However, the collection of tolls will be extended for a third time to cover rose damage repair between Moji IC and Yahata IC. Most sections of the expressway have been in use for over 30 years.
