The cycling course features a complex intersection layout to mimic real-world urban traffic conditions found in Tokyo.

The facility is integrated into the Adachi City park network as a specialized 'Transportation Park' (Kotsu Koen).
Kita-Shikahama Park is a transport-themed municipal park in Adachi City specifically designed as an educational and active play space for children. The park's primary feature is an extensive traffic safety circuit where children can practice cycling and pedal-kart riding on designated lanes featuring miniature road signs, pedestrian crossings, and functioning traffic lights. A fleet of bicycles, pedal karts, and training bikes is available for public use within the traffic loop. The facility also features a large adventure playground area with climbing frames and slides tailored for younger children. Educational boards throughout the park teach road safety rules and navigation skills in a real-world simulation format. It serves as a community hub for local families to facilitate both outdoor exercise and traffic awareness training.
