Note: this intersection is located on or near the original location of the old 六郷用水 Rokugo yōsui irrigation system, aka the Rokugo Canal, which lends its name to a Ward within Ota-ku today.

At the southern border of Ota-ku is Rokugōdote Station 六郷土手駅, also named for the canal.

A sign notes this is “Japan’s best model intersection” 「日本一ゆずり合いモデル交差点」
