17 Clearing and Reopening Land, Sea and Air Routes Land Routes By Mar 15, 15 of a total 16 east-west routes were opened with the cooperation of local construction companies (52 teams) based on prior disaster agreements. Sea Routes By Mar 23, all 10 ports on the pacific coast were back in operation to accommodate receiving emergency goods. Air Routes Drain-pump vehicles were intensively mobilized for the restoration ti of the Sendai Airport.
18 What Made the Swift Road Clearing Operation Possible? 1 The implementation of reinforcement measures to bridges, before the earthquake, mitigated the damage in this disaster. 2 MLIT intensively mobilized its resources on carefully selected 16 routes in Operation Comb. 3 Local construction companies immediately provided support, based on prior disaster agreements.
19 Disaster Recovery Equipment By March 14, the Tohoku Bureau could communicate with 16 local municipalities by providing them its satellite communication equipment. At the peak of the response, MLIT mobilized 192 disaster operation vehicles in the affected localities. 70% of them were brought in from other regional bureaus.
