  • Recent Trends in Japanese Transportation Masahiro Sugiyama
    Recent Trends in Japanese Transportation Masahiro Sugiyama 1. Countermeasures for Natural Disasters 2004 was a year with an unusually high occurrence of natural disasters. There were 10 typhoons from June and the country was visited by heavy rains in the Niigata/Fukushima region and Fukui region in July. The disasters led to more than 230 dead or missing and almost 170,000 homes immersed in water. In October, the Chuetsu Earthquake with an intensity of 7 rocked the country, resulting in 40 deaths and the evacuation of over 100,000 people. In December, furthermore, the Sumatra-Andaman Earthquake and ensuing tsunami, led to approximately 100,000 dead or missing in 10 countries around the Indian Ocean. Many Japanese were among the victims. Faced with such a serious situation, the annual White Paper on Land, Infrastructure and Transport in Japan 2005 published in fiscal 2004 mentions the disaster recovery countermeasures and rebuilding support offered by the national government and the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport under the title of "Aiming to Build a Country Resilient to Disasters." This attempt was made to actively respond to social needs, and discussion includes actions taken against heavy rains and typhoons, earthquakes and tsunamis.

  • Transport Policy in Perspective : 2005
    TRANSPORT POLICY IN PERSPECTIVE : 2005 Preface Automobiles made rapid advances in the last century, surpassing railways to take over the main role of surface transport, and contributed greatly to the advancement of global socio-economic systems. Therefore, the 20th Century is very much "the Century of Automobiles". Automobiles are now playing a major role in moving people and transporting goods. Our lifestyles and the economy are based upon the mobility provided by automobiles in all aspects of our society, from where we live and how we do business. Our "automobile-dependent society" has become the base for more affluent lifestyles. On the other hand, road traffic problems including traffic accidents, traffic congestion, and environmental problems such as global warming and air pollution, social problems including the transport poor, urban sprawl and the decline of city centers, are widely acknowledged as serious problems throughout the world. Under these circumstances, we are reaching a major turning point in the movement toward a mature motorized society for the 21st Century. Fortunately, advanced road traffic systems and next generation motor vehicles that will be safer as well as more environmentally friendly are beginning to emerge. These include technological innovations for motor vehicle themselves, such as less polluting and more efficient hybrid motor vehicles, and the development of intelligent motor vehicles and roads that use ITS (Intelligent Transportation Systems) technology. In addition to the globalization of our economy, we must reassess the significance of roads and motor vehicle traffic systems in the overall transportation system in Japan, where the society has become more urbanized while the total population is declining and the population is aging rapidly.
