Japan aims to construct extended transportation networks, including trunk road and railway networks, to facilitate various activities and enrich people's lives. The country's expressways and regional expressways are being constructed to form a comprehensive transportation network, with a focus on improving road conditions and promoting reform in the public works area. The trunk railway network is also being expanded, with a focus on improving services, such as running speed and railway facilities, and introducing seamless connections between Shinkansen and non-Shinkansen lines.

International transportation networks are also being developed, including the expansion of Narita Airport and the construction of new airports, such as the Kansai International Airport and the Central Japan International Airport. The country is also promoting a multi-modal transportation system, combining land, sea, and air transportation to provide efficient and comfortable transport conditions. Additionally, Japan is working to improve its international competitiveness in the Tokyo area, which has been declining due to decreased calls at Tokyo and Yokohama ports by US and European containers.

The construction of a marine highway network is also underway, with a focus on providing efficient international logistical services and regaining Japan's competitive edge. The development of Haneda Airport and other major airports in Japan is a priority issue, with a focus on creating a domestic aviation network and addressing capacity issues. Overall, Japan's goal is to create a comprehensive and efficient transportation network that can support the country's economic growth and international competitiveness.
