JITTI Journal Cultural Article November 2020 Back to All JITTI Journals November 2020 Cultural Article A Recent Style for Domestic Traveling in Japan by Daisuke Miyamoto Introduction I hope that all JITTI Journal readers and their families are in good health during this pandemic. Covid-19 has stopped our movement itself, like commuting and traveling around the world. This has also caused devastating damage to the tourism industry in Japan, as well as the transportation and other industries. Under these circumstances, the Ministry of Land Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism of Japan has started a promotional campaign called ‘’Go to Travel,’’ which helps people sightseeing in Japan by discounting travel fees and/or distributing coupons for activities, restaurants and so on. On the other hand, people who want to lower the risk of infection as much as possible may prefer to go traveling near their homes. Thus the “Go to Travel” campaign is a reasonable idea for many people who were frustrated by the quarantine but hope to travel shorter distances. The Shuzenji Area With this in mind, as I have lived in Tokyo and am familiar with the surrounding locales, I want to recommend going to the Shuzenji area, which takes about 2 hours by train, or 3 hours or less by bus or car from Tokyo. The area’s name comes from the Shuzenji-temple, which was established about 1,200 years ago, and the region is called the “Small Kyoto of Izu,” so to speak. The most symbolic spot in this area is the Tokko Onsen, which is among the 100 most famous hot springs in Japan. Of course, there are also many “must-visit” spots here too, like Japanese traditional gardens, scenic streets, and restaurants. I’d like to introduce two of these must-visit spots, Bamboo Street and an area with a series of love bridges. Bamboo Street This street is a signature tourism location in Shuzenji. Visitors can enjoy and relax while walking. It’s beyond description, so please appreciate the picture below. Bamboo Street A Series of Love Bridges If you want a boy/girlfriend, you must visit the series of love bridges. The five bridges are named “Togetsu Bridge,” ”Kokei Bridge,” ”Katsura Bridge,” ”Kaede Bridge,” and ”Takishita Bridge,” which all span over the Katsura River. It is said that your wish for love comes true when you cross over all the bridges. Kaede Bridge A trip to Shuzenji will surely allow you to be able to feel relaxed!!

JITTI Journal March 2018 Back to All JITTI Journals March 2018 Feature Article Railway in Japan During Rush Hour by Yoshitaka Araki ◆ On-time operation during rush hour In metropolitan areas such as Tokyo and Osaka, the terrible congestion of trains and people during the commuting rush-hour seems to be recognized as a kind of common feature for Japan. I think there are rush-hours during common commuting times in every country. However, in Japan, especially in the metropolitan area which highly depend on the public transportation of railways and subways, there are some sections where the congestion rate exceeds 250%. This is such a high rate of congestion that passengers can't move at all. On-time operation is essential for safety and quality of service, and this especially applies during rush hour. Each railway company in Japan has ways of mitigating the troubles caused by rush-hour commuters, as well as improving on-time operation. In this article, I'll introduce some of these methods. ◆ Facilities Some features located around train facilities to aid on-time and safe train operations are listed below: *Wide train doors One of the reason for delays is the time it takes for passengers to get in and out of train cars. Some train cars have been adapted to have doors that are a shoulder-width wider than the standard, which makes it easier for passengers to get in and out of the trains more smoothly. *Platform screen doors and Automatic operation Platform screen doors doesn't have a direct relation to on-time operation, but it contributes to the reduction of risk of passengers falling onto the train tracks, which aids on-time trains and safety. Furthermore, most of the screen doors contain Train Automatic Stopping Control systems, so that trains stop with precision at the right position. This system contributes to on-time operation as it shortens the amount of time necessary for braking, etc. . *Train protection system - Speed control by ATC (Automatic Train Control) During rush hour, it is necessary to increase the number of trains so that many passengers can be transported. For smooth operation in such situations, train protection systems, such as signals etc., are essential. In Japan, most urban transit systems and the Shinkansen (Bullet Train) have ATC, or equivalent equipment, which enables high density transportation. A quick explanation of ATC in Japan follows: Most ATC has tracking circuits on the rails which recognize the spaces between trains and sets the speed limit. When trains exceed the speed limit, their speed is automatically reduced. This system also enables trains to stop with proper space between them and others. ATC is different from the recently popular type of systems such as PTC, CBTC, etc., systems which use wireless communication. Most ATC systems were introduced prior to the recently developed digital wireless communication technology, so wireless protection systems are not as popular in Japan. Of course, these newer types of systems have more advantages than the current ones, so some railway companies in Japan are considering introducing them. *Smooth ticket gate process In Japan, as in other countries, the purchase of fares using IC cards has been increasing in recent years. When passengers go through the ticket gate, they need to hold their IC card over the readers. If it takes a long time to read the card this can cause congestion in the station before even getting to the platform. The standard for IC cards for transportation in Japan requires that they can be read within 0.2 seconds. In this way, 60 passengers could go through the ticket gate per minute. ◆ Employees The companies' activities toward rush hour traffic consists not only of the facilities, but also service by the employees. *Controlling the distance between trains Especially during rush hour, the Railway Control Center adjust the positions of the trains so that their distances will be equal. The main adjustment, especially in cases where the gap between trains has become wider than originally intended, is delaying the departure of preceding-train to shorten the distance between it and the following train. If the timing of the trains is left widened, passengers at platform will be concentrated when boarding the following one, and that will cause further delays. In addition, the following-trains will have to stop before arriving at the platform to compensate for this delay and once the train stops, it takes time to restart, which can also cause more delays. An effective countermeasure to prevent these types of issues is for employees to adjust the distance between trains equally. *Part-time employees during rush hours on platforms Have you ever gotten your body or belongings stuck in the door when getting on the train, when in a hurry, or just because you got caught in the crowd? There are platform employees positioned during morning rush hour to help support passengers so that they can get in and out of the train cars smoothly. Of course, they are not only there for when the doors open or close, they also are there to answer passenger questions. ◆ Cooperation by Passengers In the above we discussed some of the ways that train companies are working to alleviate the problems associated with morning rush hour. Needless to say, it is also essential for smooth operations that train companies have the cooperation of riders. I would briefly like to discuss some of the requests made of rush hour commuters in metropolitan Tokyo. *Early Bird Morning rush hour occurs according to ordinary business hours, so passengers can avoid the terrible crowds by taking a train 1 or 2 hours earlier than the rush will be. To promote this, train companies promote deals for those who are willing to be "early birds". For example, passengers can get rewards if they go through ticket gates before certain times, and they can redeem these points for their daily travels or for shopping. *One-side Pedestrian Traffic on Concourses Have you ever bumped into to someone when walking on the concourse because you were both walking on the same side? Many stations in Japan indicate in which direction to walk, right side or left side, to help aid the smooth flow of passengers. *Manners It is essential for passengers to cooperate when they're on the platform, concourse, and trains. Since it's not rules but manners that are necessary, the train companies ask for everyone's cooperation, and have devised content, such as posters. Example related to rush hour are below: >>> Forming a line on the platform, Smooth boarding of trains While waiting the next train, passengers are encouraged to form a line on the platform. When getting in and out the train, have you ever had difficulty because of people standing near the door and not moving? In Japan, there are posters asking for cooperation in moving out of the way when the doors are opened. >>> Personal baggage in the trains Have you ever been hit by someone else's baggage when standing or sitting on the train? I think many people have had this experience, especially when it is baggage on someone's back, such as backpacks. Railway companies in Japan suggest that passengers carry their baggage on their front, even backpacks. Carrying bags on your back can cause a bother for others in crowded cars but changing the way you carry them can improve flow in train cars. >>> Smartphones People with smartphones are increasing, and that can cause various problems in railway facilities. Railway companies ask passengers to observe some cellphone manners, such as refraining from talking in cars, turning off their cellphones near priority seats, and so on. Recently the issues resulting from walking while using smartphones are also increasing, such as people falling on the rails, hitting other passengers, blocking people who are trying to walk, and etc. The companies have asked passengers to be mindful of this while using their smartphones as well. Two examples of these posters follow: ◆ Conclusion Recently, the diversity of types of work in increasing in Japan. Workers can choose short-time work, staggering their office hours, telecommuting, and so on. However, at the same time, daily ridership in the metropolitan area is also increasing, as well as sales of commuter train passes. Regular sales of the commuter passes indicate how many people work regularly in the downtown area of the city and it indicates the concentration of people and economic activities there. The population in Japan is decreasing, and it's said that even in the metropolitan areas it will start to decline. In addition, the recent sharing economy for cars and bikes, development of autonomous vehicles, etc. are all threats to the vitality of the railway transportation industry. But, from the perspective of recent trends in the use of railways, railway companies will need to continue to solve issues related rush hour congestion.

JITTI Journal Cultural Article July 2022 Back to All JITTI Journals July 2022 Cultural Article Traveling with My Baby in Japan by Tomomi Dodd Recently I had a chance to travel to Japan with my husband and 4-month-old baby, and I would like to write about my experience of what it was like traveling there with an infant. Since I am working for a research institute dealing with transportation, I would like to focus on those parts of the trip. Our first and biggest challenge was a flight to Tokyo from Washington, D.C. (which took about 13 hours!). Of course, we were very nervous about flying with a 4 month old baby…..! We immediately reserved a bassinet through the ANA customer center after we booked the flights. On the day of, as having a baby allowed us prior boarding, we were better able to relax and prepare for seating. Upon boarding, ANA flight attendants gave us warm smiles, saying, “Is there anything we can do to help? Please let us know any time.” They attached a bassinet to the wall in front of us soon after the flight departed. Some bathrooms on the plane had a changing station for babies. Though the space was small like on any other airline, we had no problem working with what was provided. Despite of all of our anxieties, our baby was happy in general and slept well in the bassinet. The return flight was somewhat the same experience as well, and we did not have any major problems, luckily! A bassinet on the plane Though my family lives near Tokyo, we made an excursion to Kagoshima, Kyushu to see our college friend. On the way to Kagoshima from Haneda, I used Jetstar. On the way back, I used Skymark. Both of them are LCC. After experiencing a 13-hour flight, a 2-hour flight felt so easy! Baby slept for basically the whole time. I once asked the flight attendant for hot water to make a bottle for him, and they immediately worked on my request. Throughout my trip, I was amazed to see all the bathrooms and nursing rooms designed for parents and babies. There was a special chair designed to seat infants where you can safely place your baby while you use the bathroom. Airports and many shopping malls have large nursing rooms with good privacy, changing stations, and they are very clean. Changing stations From Left to Right: Nursing room, Microwave and hot water machine located in a nursing room, A chair to put an infant in a bathroom stall Traveling by train with a baby can be also very fun (except when it’s rush hour and the trains are full of people)! Some train cars have designated space for baby strollers. Almost every station has an elevator and escalator. And as you know, Japanese trains are very punctual. You can look for routes online in advance to minimize hassle! Assigned space for baby strollers and wheel chairs (left) and Escalator at a train station (right) Overall, I had a great time traveling with a baby in Japan. This may be because I am Japanese and do not have any language problems there. However, even a little hassle with the language could be a fun memory for traveling, don’t you think? I hope you will have opportunities to travel to Japan and have a great time, with or without babies! Baby slept well at a hot spring hotel after he enjoyed a bath

JITTI Journal September 2025 Back to All JITTI Journals September 2025 Feature Article . Regional Revitalization Centered on Airports: Initiatives at Japanese Airports By Yukiko Nakamura 1. Background Airports are not only hubs for the movement of people and goods but can also serve as “cores” for showcasing the appeal of the regions where they are located. While airports are gateways that welcome many passengers, they also function as icons that convey the unique attractions of their surrounding areas. Moreover, the areas around airports tend to host industries related to airport operations and transportation, serve as valuable tourism resources, and provide residential zones for many of the people working at the airport. By collaborating with their surrounding communities, airports can not only promote greater use of their facilities but also help enrich local communities. In Japan, initiatives are increasing where airport operators closely collaborate with local governments and businesses in the airport's region to leverage this potential and revitalize the area. The following introduces some of these initiatives. 2. Initiatives of Airports in Japan Case 1 - Narita International Airport Narita Airport is Japan's busiest airport for international passengers, connected to 123 cities worldwide (As of April 2025). While the airport is accessible from central Tokyo in about one hour, it is located in Chiba Prefecture, adjacent to Tokyo. Narita City, where the airport is situated, and its surrounding areas boast many tourist attractions and local specialties, including historical buildings like temples, traditional streetscapes, and abundant natural scenery. Narita Airport Location and Surrounding Area (Image Source: Visit Chiba ) Narita Airport has been working on expansion projects to prepare for future growth in air traffic demand in the Tokyo metropolitan area. Its plan is to increase the annual slot capacity from 300,000 to 500,000 by March 2029 through the extension of existing runway and the construction of a new one. In addition to expanding runway capacity, the airport envisions consolidating passenger terminals and developing a new cargo area to enhance both passenger and cargo handling capacity. Importantly, the plan also emphasizes collaboration and co-development with surrounding regions, not just expansion of the airport itself. Narita "Airport City" Concept In June 2025, Narita Airport, together with Chiba Prefecture and surrounding municipalities, announced the "Airport City Concept," aiming for integrated growth of the airport and its surrounding areas. Its concepts and vision are as follows. ■Concepts Ÿ A key national project to strengthen Narita Airport's international competitiveness and drive Japan's growth strategy Ÿ Harnessing global dynamism to maximize the inherent potential of Japan, Narita Airport, and the surrounding region Ÿ Transforming into a metropolitan area that leads the world ■Vision Ÿ Becoming a flagship airport city that continues to make Japan shine on the global stage Ÿ Generating vitality through fostering next-generation industries and leveraging digital transformation. Ÿ Forming an international industrial hub, Japan's most global city = a future-oriented airport city Ÿ Forming the airport region's unique identity and landscape ■Zoning Ÿ Creation of a broad economic sphere centered on the airport Ÿ Dividing the Narita Airport area into five interconnected zones to form a globally leading airport city region; utilizing the high accessibility and prime locations of the four zones near the airport to establish international industrial and logistics hubs Ÿ Simultaneously forming integrated industrial, residential, and tourism hubs where the airport and surrounding areas organically collaborate Conceptual Zoning of the Airport Periphery Area (Image Source: Narita Airport City Concept ) 1. Industrial Gateway (Red): A mixed-use zone where logistics and industrial functions coexist with high-value-added agriculture and export hubs 2. Sky Frontier Cross (Blue): A cluster zone for advanced industries and training facilities, centered on the aerospace industry 3. Life Science Park (Yellow): A cluster zone for life science businesses centered around medical and R&D hubs 4. Access Business Hub (Green): A hub zone featuring business and lodging functions Development and Sales of Products Using Local Specialties Narita Airport also collaborates with local producers and businesses to develop products using specialty items from the surrounding area, selling them both inside and outside the airport. 　Examples include sweets made from local agricultural products such as sweet potatoes and peanuts, craft beer brewed with Chiba-grown olives and Japanese pepper, and original gin flavored with timber felled during airport expansion work. These uniquely developed products not only appeal to airport users through on-site sales but are also sold in local stores and online, promoting the airport and its surrounding region to wider audiences. This enhances recognition, supports future tourism growth, and increases sales of local products. Original confections and alcoholic beverages using local specialty ingredients (Image Source: +NRT Factory , NARITA AIRPORT to TABLE ) Creation of the promotional brand "NARITA BEYOND" Narita Airport has also launched “NARITA BEYOND,” a destination promotion brand that highlights the attractions of the surrounding area. Through an information space within the airport, as well as a website that allows users to book local experiences, dining, and accommodation, the initiative aims to deliver regional information to a wider audience, stimulating tourism and local consumption. Although Narita is close to Tokyo, travelers often bypass Chiba Prefecture altogether. This initiative addresses that challenge by positioning the airport’s surrounding area as a destination in its own right, generating benefits for both the airport and the region. The "NARITA BEYOND" website introduces the attractions and experiences around Narita Airport (Image Source: NARITA BEYOND ) The information hub for "NARITA BEYOND," which opened in August, 2025 at Narita Airport's Terminal 1 (Image Source: https://pnl.jp/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/20250725_naritabeyond.pdf ) Case 2 - Nanki-Shirahama Airport (Kumano Shirahama Resort Airport) Nanki-Shirahama Airport is located in Wakayama Prefecture, in Japan's Kansai region, with approximately 235,000 passengers recorded in fiscal year 2024. The airport is relatively close to Kyoto and Osaka. Wakayama Prefecture is also blessed with rich tourism resources, including the World Heritage sites of Kumano Kodo and Koyasan, as well as beaches, hot springs, and recreation parks. Although Nanki-Shirahama Airport is a relatively small airport in terms of passenger volume, it actively engages with the local community, promoting tourism resources and encouraging travel within the region. This approach aims to revitalize the surrounding area and boost airport usage. Location of Wakayama Prefecture and Kumano-Shirahama Resort Airport (Nanki-Shirahama Airport) (Image Source: Wakayama Travel Guide ) Enhancing Regional Circulation and Convenience with Facial Recognition Nanki Shirahama Airport collaborated with NEC, a company with advanced facial recognition technology, to conduct pilot projects from 2019 to February 2025. The service allowed registered users (by uploading facial images and credit card information in advance) to make payments at participating stores through facial recognition, unlock hotel rooms, and gain fast-track entry to recreational facilities. Additionally, electronic coupons were linked to the system, encouraging tourists to visit multiple facilities while collecting valuable data on consumer behavior. This initiative, led by the airport in collaboration with private companies and local governments, represented a novel IT-driven effort to promote regional tourism and attracted significant attention in Japan.

Conclusion In Japan, airports are evolving beyond mere transit points to become hubs that disseminate regional information and appeal, attract visitors, and drive integrated regional development. The Japanese government has positioned "regional revitalization" as a key policy theme and has been pursuing it long-term. At the same time, efforts to attract inbound travelers are being strengthened, with the dual aims of spreading economic benefits to regional areas and addressing over-tourism in major cities . Airports are expected to continue evolving as bridges that connect local communities with travelers, serving as models for promoting regional exchange, tourism, and international outreach.
