Negishi Station has the second largest number of passengers after Shinsugida Station in the ward, adjacent to the station area of Isogo Station, and forms a continuous area with administrative and medical facilities located between them.
Isogo Station is the nearest station to the ward office, and there are high local needs such as barrier-free in front of the station and creating bustle, and folding screenura Station forms an integrated station area with Isogo Station.
In the area around Sugita Station and Shin-Sugita Station, we will review the basic concept that has been created in order to achieve gradual and continuous development (spiral up).

In preparing the Basic Plan for Barrier-Free, we established the Isogo Ward Subcommittee, which consists of academics, welfare-related organizations, regional representatives, businesses, and government officials.

In addition to the members of the ward club, we actually checked the site and compiled the issues.
※Workshops have been suspended in the areas around Sugita Station, Shin-Sugita Station, and Negishi Station to prevent the spread of COVID-19 infection.

We arranged results of "opinion offer about barrier-free" and "town walk inspection, workshop" and examined desirable correspondence (plan) based on opinion.

※In order to prevent the spread of COVID-19 infection, the 2nd ward meeting was held in writing.

About desirable correspondence (plan) based on opinion, we coordinated with company and proposed basic design draft based on the result.

The basic concept for barrier-free areas around Sugita Station and Shin-Sugita Station, which was formulated in 2013, was shifted because it was reviewed in the Isogo Ward Barrier-Free Basic Concept.
