About initiatives in the Tamagawa Gakuendai district

In May 2008, an organization was established in the Tamagawa Gakuendai district to consider appropriate means of transportation for local communities based on the Road and Highway Bureau Regional Transportation Support Project. Over the next six years, regional organizations, bus operators, and Yokohama City have repeatedly examined the matter, aiming to increase the number of buses in the district and correct one-way operation of the crane 09 system (so that you can get on and off at any time). .
