The Chiba-Tōgane Road (千葉東金道路 Chiba Tōgane Dōro?) is a toll road in Chiba Prefecture, Japan. It is owned and operated by East Nippon Expressway Company.
Officially the road is designated as National Route 126. The road is built to an expressway standard and is classified as a road for motor vehicles only (自動車専用道路 Jidōsha Senyō Dōro?) (motor vehicles must have a displacement of at least 125 cc).
The road consists of two distinct sections. The first section (Chiba-higashi Junction to Tōgane Interchange) was opened in 1979 and connects the prefectural capital Chiba with the city of Tōgane. It is 4 lanes for its entire length.
The second section (Tōgane Interchange to Matsuo-Yokoshiba Interchange) was opened in 1998 and is 2 lanes. This section is designed to become part of the future Ken-Ō Expressway. The expressway will extend south beyond Tōgane Interchange (expected to open in 2009-2010) and north beyond Matsuo-Yokoshiba Interchange (route is currently under assessment).
