Will the main line of Loop Line 2 finally open? (formerly Tsukiji Market)

I GPP, who loves fixed-point observation, reports that a new roadway has been laid from Tsukiji Ohashi to the former Tsukiji Market.

Has the road that will become the Loop Route 2 "Main Line" finally opened?

At the time of 2020, there were two roads, but as of 2022, another road (photo 3 on the right) is increasing.

According to materials released by the Tokyo Metropolitan Bureau of Construction on February 19, 2020, the main line is planned to pass straight in the middle.

The location where the new roadway was laid this time (photo 3 on the right) is close to the main line of Route 2, which was planned in this press release document. However, from the top, it may be a bit curved and the width of the road seems to be slightly narrow, so it may not be a full-fledged route yet.

Roads where both cars and people used to pass (Photo 2 on the right) were no longer accessible by car and used for pedestrians.

Nevertheless, the change in the old Tsukiji market area is remarkable. I can't keep an eye on it.
