京都ニュース山鉾町周辺の主な交通規制As the climax of the month-long Gion Matsuri (Festival) approaches, traffic restrictions will go into effect in central Kyoto on the 10th of July.
The restrictions will last until the 18th, the day after the main event on the 17th.
The restrictions will be enforced by Kyoto's men and women in blue, and will be put in place in Nakagyo Ward focusing on the area around Shijo Dori and Karasuma Dori.
Every night from 6 pm until 11 pm, the areas in blue in the map below will be off limits to vehicular traffic.
In particular the nights leading up the festival - July 16 (Yoiyama), July 15 (Yoiyoiyama), and July 14 (Yoiyoiyama) - are very crowded.
On those nights, some 3,450 police and security personnel will be out monitoring traffic.
Here is a map in Japanese.
