Multiple double track section

between Kyodo and Chitose-Funabashi

Conversion to multiple double

tracks provides the following two

benefits.

4

Additional trains cannot be operated during peak rush hour periods.

Time is required for local trains to wait for express or semi-express trains to

arrive or overtake.

Since express or semi-express trains cannot overtake local trains, their speed decreases.

The number of trains can be increased, alleviating

congestion.

Local trains no longer have to wait for express or semi-express trains to arrive or overtake, resulting in

shortening of travel times.

Since express and semi-express trains travel on a separate track, their progress isn’t impeded by trains traveling

ahead, resulting in shortening of travel times.

Railroad crossing eliminated (between Kyodo and Chitose-Funabashi)

■ Easing of traffic congestion from elimination of railroad crossings, development of station plazas

(Benefits from the continuous grade separation project )

Development of a station plaza (Komae Station)

3 Project Benefits Realized to Date

■ Shortening of travel times

Sections already completed are showing an increase in passengers

carried exceeding the Odakyu Line average.

A certain degree of success has been achieved in shortening travel times

compared to before the start of the multiple double track project.

By March 2013, 39 railroad crossings had been eliminated between Higashi-Kitazawa and Izumi-Tamagawa.

⇒ Benefits realized include alleviation of traffic congestion, improved railway and road safety, and improved access

to stations.

5

On the other hand, since construction in the Shimo-Kitazawa area is incomplete, train frequency cannot be substantially increased, and the benefits are limited at present.
