High-Density Transport Systems Supporting Giant Metropolis of Tokyo Mitsuo Shinbo Breakthrough in Japanese Railways 13 High-Density Transport Systems Supporting Giant Metropolis of Tokyo Mitsuo Shinbo Introduction Old JNR’s Five Commuting Directions JR East’s railway lines extend radially out from the Yamanote Tokyo is a giant metropolis. However, it is difficult to clearly Line in five directions. The development of these routes is define what area is being referred to when we say ‘Tokyo’. outlined below. There are the 23 wards that function as administrative The post-war reconstruction coupled with the high- districts, but if we refer to ‘Tokyo’ as meaning the highly economic-growth period saw a rapid concentration of populated area that is the centre of Japan’s politics and population in the capital area. However, land-price inflation culture, we are talking about a wider area. Counting the area in existing urban areas made purchase of houses difficult from Tokyo Station west to Yokohama City, north to Saitama for ordinary workers, so new house building was focussed City, and east to Chiba City, we reach Greater Tokyo with a in suburban areas. As a result, commuter trains became population of 30 million people, which is closer to what most very congested, and ‘congestion rates’ (expressing actual people think of Tokyo as being. passenger numbers as a ratio to carriage capacity) reached Some people may say that by using this definition of 300% on some sections. Tokyo, the city spreads in a chaotic manner and its borders To alleviate this congestion, in 1964, Japanese National with surrounding cities disappear. One could point out that Railways (JNR) planned new double-track additions to Tokyo is a city lacking the sense of completeness of London existing transport routes from suburban areas to the city and Paris. However, despite having grown to enormous centre (the Tokaido, Sobu, Joban, Tohoku, and Chuo routes). size, Tokyo’s railways, and power and water utilities are well These are the capital area’s so-called ‘five commuting developed and its urban functions well maintained. Ocean directions’. Construction started in 1965 and was finally and air pollution that were social problems in the 1970s completed after almost 20 years in 1983. The foresight of were overcome by later efforts, and now Tokyo has regained this five commuting directions campaign for the capital is clean seas and skies. probably the primary reason why transport continued to The Tokyo area has expanded greatly through its function without collapsing, despite the size to which Tokyo historical background of recovery from the destruction of had grown. war, the high-economic-growth period, and amplification of Part of the campaign involved creating an additional its mission as a world-class urban area. This article looks double-track line between Tokyo and Odawara for the at how the social infrastructure of railways has evolved to Tokaido route. The details are as follows: support the expansion of Greater Tokyo. • Construct new double-track line as underground route between Tokyo and Shinagawa Enhancement of Transport Routes • Divert freight lines to passenger lines between Shinagawa to Shintsurumi marshalling yard Railway Network in Greater Tokyo • Add double-track line on existing freight route The railway network in Greater Tokyo is complex, so it is between Shintsurumi marshalling yard and Tsurumi described here in a general manner. • Construct new double-track line on separate route First, JR East’s Yamanote Line runs in a loop around between Tsurumi and Totsuka the city centre. Also, a very dense subway network runs • Add double-track line on existing route between inside or near the Yamanote Line. The JR East railway Totsuka and Odawara network extends radially out from terminal stations such Figure 1 shows a track chart for the Tokaido route after as Tokyo, Ueno, and Shinjuku on the Yamanote Line loop. construction was completed.

Measures the 20th century, forming a dense network of tracks shared to convert freight lines from the JNR era to commuter routes with roads. were a major element of the post-privatization improvements However, trams only have a small transport capacity to transport and making use of these hidden JNR assets that soon became inadequate in the post-war era as the helped alleviate congestion. number of automobiles grew in line with the concentration The construction of the Keiyo Line is an example of of functions in the city centre.

Tokyo’s oldest subway is the Ginza Line now reaching Tokyo Station, adding a third line to the Sobu route operated by Tokyo Metro.

Since Tokyo Metro, a special-purpose company funded by the the objective was more to improve services than increase national and Tokyo Metropolitan governments, runs nine revenues, some private railways had a hard time justifying lines. The Tokyo Metropolitan Government, which started to the investment. To assist them, the national government operate subways after WWII, runs four lines.
