1 Work status and future processes
Of the two derails (cars 4 and No. 5), Car No. 5 was completed to the rail at 20:29 yesterday.
As a result, we were able to secure a work space for jacking up Car 4.
In addition to raising the remaining car No. 4 to the rail, we are proceeding with track work such as replacing makuragi in places where possible.
We are also preparing for the transfer of vehicles.
2 Expected recovery
At this time, there is no prospect of reopening between the non-connected section (between Shonandai and landing).
In the future, we will continue to provide information on the status of restoration and the prospect of resumption of operation in non-stop sections.
3 Today's operation status
The blue line runs back (every 5 to 7 minutes) between Azamino and the landing all day after the first train.
From 5:30 am to 24:30 am, agency transportation by bus in non-stop sections will be carried out between Odori Station and Nakada Station-Tateba Station-Izumi-Chuo Station (Sotetsu Izumino Line) from 5:30 am to 24:30 am.
Due to the lack of transportation capacity, we are calling for the use of transfer to other company lines when we go out.
4 About tomorrow's service
We are making every effort to restore non-connected sections so that we can resume operations as soon as possible.
If it is not possible to resume operation in the interrupted section.
・The blue line runs back between Azamino and the landing site from the first train (every 5 to 7 minutes).
・In non-stop sections, transportation by bus from 5:30 a.m.
I'm preparing for it.
