2.Railroad Improvement History
Railway Improvement Phase 1 (Railway Network Improvement, etc.) Background and Challenges 1. Population concentrating in Tokyo metropolitan area due to rapid economic growth 2. Shortage of and increasing public demand of transport network, etc. Counter Measures 1. Construction of new lines as an urban transport agency 2. Expanding the network in the central Tokyo and the surrounding areas 3. Respond to the need for increased carrying power and to relieve congestion (Adding cars to trains, lengthening and expanding platforms) 4. Making facilities improvement in accordance with the revision of applicable laws (Fire prevention, Barrier Free improvements, Earthquake reinforcement, etc.)
Example of Construction of New Line During Construction Railway development to agricultural area After Construction Development alongside the railway
Railway Improvement Phase 2 (Urban rebirth, Renewal of railway facilities, etc.) Background and Challenges 1. Localized overpopulation associated with urban redevelopment 2. Congestion becoming striking and chronic (station congestion, carriage congestion) 3. Increase in train delays due to congestion 4. The 2020 Olympics and Paralympics will be held in Tokyo Counter Measures 1. Station improvements and new stations created in step with development alongside the railway 2. Respond to the need for increased carrying power, congestion relief, and schedule delays (Platform extension and widening, eliminate locations of overcrowding, etc.) 3. Improve facilities to meet the needs of customers from overseas (Further promotion of Barrier Free improvements, platform screen doors, etc.)

New Stations 1. The construction of new stations as contributions towards international business and exchange, and the functional enhancement of traffic in the central Tokyo area. 2. Hub stations function with mid-scale transportation facilities (BRT, etc.) to connect central Tokyo with competition facilities and the Olympic Village during the 2020 Olympics and Paralympics. Total Length of about 21 km Kitasenju Ikebukuro JR Yamanote Line Ueno Akihabara Shinjuku Toranomon New Station (Temporary Name) Shibuya Ebisu Kasumigaseki Tokyo Hibiya Roppongi Ginza Kamiyacho Shimbashi Kayabacho Naka-Meguro Shinagawa

Improvement of Kyobashi Station, Ginza Line 1. Install Barrier-Free facilities in coordination with development in the surrounding area. 2. Modify the station to handle increasing passengers in the future. Issue Inadequate Barrier-Free facilities (Absence of elevators from train platform to fare gates) Existing elevators and escalators are insufficient Narrow locations in several locations in stations Counter-measures Improve Barrier-Free facilities Install elevator, 1 unit (platform to fare gates) Install escalator, 2 units (platform to fare gates) Relocation and increase of stairs Increase of fare gates Change of station layout Result A station that is in accordance with the Traffic Barrier-Free Act. A station that is able to serve greater numbers of passengers in the future via an increase in elevators and escalators.

Relocation of Shibuya Station (Integrated improvement of urban development and the train station) 1. Partnership of the government and private sector will implement the integrated functional renewal and reorganization of the station, the reorganization and expansion of public facilities such as the station square, roads, and the redevelopment of the station building. Issues Aging station facilities Congestion from a lack of walkways Automobile traffic congestion and complications Results Counter-measures Improvement of railway facilities Relocation Ginza Line platform Parallelization of Saikyo Line Platform Explation of transfer concourse Improvement of public facilities Improvement of station square and underground square Renovation of Station Building Expansion of pathways and open areas In addition to increasing the convenience of the transfer area, the station space becomes comfortable and easily understandable The now-safe open areas become more comfortable Traffic congestion relief and increased safety by arranging automobile lanes

23 Improvements to Kiba Station, Tozai Line 1. Station improvement will be implemented to handle the increasing passengers from redevelopment around the station. Issues Due to redevelopment around the station, there is a sudden increase in passengers getting on and off During rush hour, chronic stagnation occurs As there the platform has little space, there is a risk of coming in contact with the train Counter-measures Widen the platform and the concourse (Width to increase: 68.5m) New construction of entrance/exits and fare gates New construction of escalators New construction of elevators Countermeasures against wind from trains Change various things in station layout Results Noticeable improvement of passenger flow distribution, elimination of 旅客の流動を分散し ホーム階及び改札階の滞留を解消し 安全性 利便性の向上を図る stagnation on platform and fare gate floor, safety, and convenience.
