The Tokyo Metropolitan Government plans to revise the “Tokyo Undergrounding Plan” in accordance with the Tokyo Undergrounding Promotion Ordinance. In conjunction with this, we have compiled a draft of the “Tokyo Port Undergrounding Plan (FY2026–FY2030),” which outlines the five-year implementation strategy for the Tokyo Port area, and we are now soliciting comments from residents.
We will revise the plan based on the feedback received from residents.
