It looks like there will be road closures around Hanshin Koshien Stadium.
(Thanks to Chibimarue and Yuu for the tip.)
Here’s the notice↓
It seems the closures are related to the expansion work on the “Ginsan” roof over the stadium’s infield seats😃
目次
Overall Schedule for the Ginsan Roof Expansion Work
The construction will be carried out in four phases, during the professional baseball off-season

Starting this fall, the work will be carried out over four years, from around November to February or March of the following year each year (after the Japan Series ends until before the next professional baseball season begins).

Finally
This big four-year project is finally starting this fall! Of course, spectators will be able to enjoy games without worrying about rain or sunlight, and for Nishinomiya locals, the view of the stadium from the outside will also change, so it’ll be exciting to watch the construction progress😄
*Chibimarue and Yuu, thank you very much for the information!!
