About approach of Kojaku district
In October 2007, an organization was established mainly in the Kojaku west district of Kojaku Neighborhood Associations, based on the Yokohama City Regional Transportation Support Project, to consider appropriate means of transportation. Over the next six months, regional organizations, businesses, and Yokohama City conducted repeated examinations, and as a result of efforts aimed at operating route buses that support elderly people and those who live far away from the bus stop, Full-scale operation using wagon-type vehicles has been underway since July 2009.
