Demonstration experiment of utilization of "Panda Bridge," an east-west connecting passage at JR Ueno Station
Based on the Ueno District Urban Development Vision, East Japan Railway Company and Taito Ward are working to create a new base that everyone will want to use, with the aim of improving the mobility of Ueno Forest and the city. Since December 2022, a demonstration experiment has been conducted on Panda Bridge with new ways of spending time and using the bridge, with the aim of making the bridge a comfortable space. Through repeated verification of safety, comfort, etc., we will continue to develop the unique character of Panda Bridge.
About "TOKYO MOVING ROUND"
In line with its group management vision, "Move Up 2027," JR East is shifting from "provision of railway-based services" to "creation of people-based value and services" with the aim of realizing "enriched lives" for everyone in the local community.
In addition to services that improve the convenience of everyday life, including transportation, we will create a rich urban living space by bringing out the individuality of diverse towns and people and creating connections between stations, stations and towns, people and towns, and people and people.
As part of this, the Tokyo Moving Line is working on art initiatives, providing opportunities to casually enjoy art at everyday stations. Working with various curators, we are developing galleries that exhibit art in corners of station facilities and provide opportunities to casually interact with art, with the theme of "daily life connected to art."
