The 2024 Problem and Our Approach
Are you familiar with the 2024 problem and the impact of traffic congestion?
The 2024 problem refers to the various problems that will arise in the transportation and logistics industry due to the application of the "maximum overtime hours for automobile driving operations" from April 1, 2024, in accordance with the Law Concerning Reform of Workplace Labor Practices.
The 2024 problem refers to various problems that will arise in related industries as a result of the application of the overtime limit for automobile driving operations from April 1, 2024.
In addition to the 2024 problem, traffic congestion causes other serious problems such as exhaust emissions, noise, and other environmental issues, as well as reduced traffic safety in the community.
We believe that if traffic congestion is reduced, transportation and logistics efficiency will be restored, leading to a better 2024 problem.
We therefore focused on alleviating traffic congestion as part of our school's exploratory activities to solve problems in Sayama City, Saitama Prefecture.
We will send out the message from Sayama City, alleviate traffic congestion that occurs nationwide, and contribute to the improvement of the 2024 problem as well as to the economic revitalization of the region.
We will contribute to the economic revitalization of the region, improvement of the living environment for local residents, and the creation of an environmentally friendly town.。
Here are details about the plans we have devised and our efforts to alleviate these traffic jams.
See below for more details. PRESS "Learn More!" to see the details.
Reason for invention
Through research activities, we consider measures to eliminate and alleviate traffic congestion. By easing traffic congestion, I hopeto solve the 2024 problem. Have you ever felt stressed due to traffic jams that occur during your daily commute to school or work? Traffic congestion has a negative impact on the economy and environment. We will eliminate such traffic congestion in Sayama City and improve the economy, environment, and lifestyle.
Business content
We will learn about the mechanisms that cause traffic congestion, analyze and compile reports on major roads in Sayama City,
devise concrete solutions, and request improvements from the government.
In addition, we will publicize traffic congestion relief from this website.
As measures to alleviate traffic congestion, we will devise measures such as installing Melody Road and adjusting the switching intervals of traffic lights.
Future Plans
In the future, we will conduct an analysis of major traffic congestion locations in
Sayama City, conduct a questionnaire survey regarding traffic congestion, and compile the results into
a report with specific improvement plans. Submit these reports to government agencies and request improvements.

2024 Problem and Trafic Reporting Form ＋The 2024 Problem and Traffic Congestion
The 2024 problem is a problem in Japan where logistics and other operations will be delayed due to changes in laws starting in April 2024.
Specifically, the "Maximum Overtime Work Hours for Motor Vehicle Driving Operations" will be applied from April of this year. This will reduce the number of truck drivers' working hours and manpower, causing a further decline in logistics efficiency.
This is not only a problem in Japan, but I believe that problems will arise in many countries around the world as a result of this type of work style reform.
Therefore, as a first step, I believe it is important to find a solution to this problem from Sayama City, and to communicate it to the whole country and the world.
By easing traffic congestion and restoring logistics efficiency,
we believe that this will substantially offset the decline in logistics efficiency, etc. caused by the 2024 problem, and will lead to a positive outcome.
Traffic congestion is attracting attention not only from us but also from many major companies as a way to improve the 2024 problem and environmental issues.
Specifically, some companies are working with universities to develop AI prediction systems for traffic congestion to improve logistics and delivery efficiency.
Traffic jam report form
This form allows you to report traffic congestion.
Based on the information entered, the data will be used primarily as follows.
1．Post on the web the dates and times when traffic congestion is likely to occur in each location.
2．Data collected on traffic congestion characteristics, etc., will be used in reports submitted to the government.
By displaying the location and date of traffic jams, we believe that drivers will be able to avoid traffic jams in advance.
In addition, analysis and discussion of this big data will lead to a better understanding of specific traffic conditions and the devising of more effective measures.
We then submit a highly persuasive report to the government based on numerical values from these data.
If drivers are aware of this while driving, it will help alleviate traffic congestion.
1. Maintain an appropriate distance from the vehicle in front.
2. Be aware of changing lanes with plenty of time to spare, and avoid cutting into traffic unnecessarily.
3. Be careful not to speed too much or slow down when going up/downhill or in tunnels.
4. Drive at a constant speed and limit the number of times you brake.(it depends)
Let's all alleviate traffic congestion and contribute to improving the 2024 problem! ♫♩
