Another construction sign that I found while I was out hiking. Well, it was right next to the last two that I put in Kanji Reading Practice. Along with the previous two, you could most certainly see the same thing on a regular road.
Probably any type of road or trail for that matter. This is a pretty important sign that you might want to become familiar with when hiking in Japan. See down below the photo of the sign for the kanji readings and meanings, and the meanings of vocabulary words used in the sign. Kanji Reading Practice #31 - Construction Signs 工事中 has kanji from WaniKani levels 39 and below.*Special disclaimer - while I have the general meaning of the Japanese correct, I probably butchered it. There is some honorific language on this sign, and I certainly got some of it incorrect. But the general idea is there.
