Purpose of Business
Eliminate 10 railroad crossings near Tsurugamine Station on the Sotetsu Main Line!
In Yokohama City, we are promoting a continuous grade separation project near Tsurugamine Station (Nishiya Station-Futamatagawa Station) in order to revitalize the economy, improve local convenience, and ensure the safety and security of citizens' lives.
The area around Tsurugamine Station, along with the area around Futamatagawa Station, is positioned as a major living base in Asahi Ward. By conducting a continuous grade separation project on the Sotetsu Railway Main Line, we aim to improve the living environment by eliminating traffic congestion, improving local disaster prevention capabilities, and contributing to community development.

Peripheral conditions
There are many issues caused by railroad crossings.
Chronic traffic congestion
[Traffic congestion (Tsurugamine No. 2 railroad crossing)]
Roads around railroad crossings have chronic traffic congestion caused by railroad crossings, and towns are divided by railways.
Impact on Emergency Activities
[Traffic congestion (water supply)]
If an emergency vehicle has a "railroad crossing without opening" on the route to the disaster site, emergency activities may be affected by prolonged traffic congestion.
Occurrence of a serious level crossing accident
[Waiting level crossing (Tsurugamine No. 5 railroad crossing)]
In some places, elementary school studenｔ, where school districts were divided by rail, passes through railroad crossings.
The division of towns by railways
[Tsurugamine Shopping Street]
The area is divided by railways, and the area around the station is not secured, such as pedestrian migration and continuity of the cityscape suitable for major living bases.
Schedule
Yokohama City and Sagami Railway Co., Ltd. will cooperate to promote the business.
