Abstract
A gigantic reclamation plan is now being carried on the northeastern coast of the Tokyo Bay (Fig. 2). It is assumed concerning this matter that a huge amount of goods transportation will be needed when all the heavy-chemical factories on the newly reclaimed land begin to work in full (after the plan is completed). The greater part of goods will be dependent upon marine transportation (Tab. 7). However, the writer's recent research on the details of freight traffic of raw materials and products concludes as follows; there will be needed transportation by trucks on a large scale, and therefore early consolidation of road network planning is indispensable.
