NIRA 総合研究開発機構｜Status of Recovery and Current Problems in Three Disaster-hit Prefectures-What the Data Tells Us Indexes for Recovery and Reconstruction following the Great East Japan Earthquake (IV)

A review of the changes in the indexes from the date of the earthquake to March 2013 shows that in each of the three prefectures under consideration, there has been a slow but progressive recovery of basic infrastructure. While differences can be observed in the level of progress made by individual cities, towns and villages, these are chiefly differences in the status of recovery of rail systems and the treatment of debris.
