Because the section of Kawabata-dori Street between Sanjo and Shiokoji was recently opened to traffic, and the Keihan Main Line (now underground) had crossed the section before, Kawabata-dori Street cannot be used for the names of the intersections between the two streets.
川端通の三条～塩小路間は、開通から日が浅く、以前は京阪本線が地上を走っていたため、川端通を交差点名に用いない。
