More travel chaos in Japan as snow storm kills 3

 

TOKYO (AFP) - Japan's road, rail and air travel services faced further disruptions on Saturday, reports and officials said, after a fresh snow storm killed three people and injured 850 others following last week's deadly blizzard.

 

Snow began falling on Friday morning in the capital Tokyo and piled up to 26cm by early Saturday, a week after the heaviest snowfall in decades left at least 11 people dead and more than 1,200 injured across the country.

 

A driver was killed on Friday in a crash involving his car and a truck on an icy road in Shiga, central Japan, while a farmer died after a tractor overturned on a snow-covered road in southwestern Oita, local media said.

 

In a separate snow-related accident, a driver was killed and three others injured on an expressway in central Shizuoka, the news reports said.
