Information on the Demonstration Experiment of Park and Bus Ride.

What is Park and Bus Ride System?
"Park and Ride" refers to a commuting system where individuals drive from their homes to a designated parking area and then transfer to public transportation to reach their workplace.

In the Niseko region, the easing of entry restrictions has led to an increase in foreign tourists. This has resulted in severe traffic congestion and parking shortages due to the increased use of rental cars and private vehicles.
With the upcoming extension of Hokkaido Shinkansen and major roads, traffic volume is expected to rise further. In the Hirafu area, efforts environmental impact.
In 2024, as part of these efforts, a park-and-ride pilot program for employees will be conducted, continuing from last year.
