Reservations The number of foreign tourists who visited in 2016 was over 24 million, showing a steady growth. In addition, the "Tourism Vision to Support the Future of Japan" has set targets of 40 million tourists in 2020 and 60 million in 2030, and states that is necessary to establish abundant and diverse tourism resources in Japan, create employment through tourism in communities, educate people, and transform the tourism industry into a highly productive industry with international competitiveness, and furthermore it is necessary to promptly develop the environment for accepting tourists. One of the improvements to the environment for accepting tourist has been to cope with the road congestion caused by charter buses in tourist spots and commercial areas in Tokyo. This rule book mainly deals with information on concrete improvements made in each region. We believe that it will lead to smoothly-running tourism by having tour operators and charter bus operators properly use the infrastructure that has been developed, so we hope that you make use of this rule book.

~ Chartered (tourist) Bus Manners and Compliance ~

1. Secure a parking lot for tours · Please be sure to secure a parking lot space for each tourist spot, etc., on the tour. · Please refer to the parking lot information for large tourist buses on the rear side.

2. Request for compliance with the Road Traffic Act for chartered (tourist) bus operators · Passengers must not board or alight in and around intersections or crosswalks. · Continued parking when waiting for passengers is a violation even if the driver is on board.

3. When passengers board or alight at the roadside, please dispatch the bus as soon as the boarding and alighting passengers have assembled. · When passengers board at the roadside, parking the bus for long periods will cause road congestion, so please dispatch the bus when all the passengers have assembled. · Reducing passengers' boarding and alighting times will alleviate road congestion, so we ask all passengers and drivers to be thoroughly informed of this.
