Work has begun to return the timber used for the facilities of the athletes’ village of the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics to the local government that provided it. The “Village Plaza” in the Olympic Village is a facility constructed from about 40,000 timbers provided by 63 local governments nationwide, and the timbers were to be returned and reused after the competition. It has been dismantled since the end of September after the tournament, and on the 2nd, 5 tons of cypress, which will be returned to Gifu Prefecture as the first flight, was loaded onto the truck. The returned timber is branded with the tournament emblem as proof that it was used in the Olympic Village, and will be used in public facilities in the future and will be inherited as a legacy. Chairman Hashimoto, who saw off the truck, said, “I hope that the use of wood will be an opportunity for the Tokyo Games to be handed down.” (Broadcast on November 2, 2021) #NTV #News ◇ SNS of Nippon Television Press Facebook https://www.facebook.com/ntvnews24 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/ntv_news24/? hl = ja TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@ntv.news Twitter https://twitter.com/news24ntv ◇[Latest news LIVE delivery]NTV NEWS 24 HP https://www.news24.jp
