The approval of extending two bided extensions to the capital\u2019s metro network, has been issued to Tokyo Metro<\/a> by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport & Tourism. <\/p>\n

While the first phase would be the development of the Yurakucho Line in order to serve areas at the northern end of Tokyo Bay that are undergoing wide renovating, the 4\u00b78 km extension would stretch from Toyosu in Koto City, where it would interchange with the Yurikamome automatic transit guideway line, to Sumiyoshi. Additionally, another advantage of this link is estimated to be decreasing congestion on Tokyo Metro\u2019s east-west Tozai Line nearby, which is the network\u2019s busiest route.<\/p>\n

Locating in Shirokane Takanawa, the second part of projects would be a 2\u00b75 km extension of the Namboku Line, where there is an interchange with Toei\u2019s Mita Line, to Shinagawa, in order to serve the Tokyo terminus of the Chuo Shinkansen maglev line. At Shinagawa, the metro would also interchange with JR East\u2019s Yamanote, Keihin-Tohoku, and Tokaido lines, the Tokaido Shinkansen, and the Keikyu Line to Haneda Airport.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
