Yamanote Line and Keihin-Tohoku Line Major Suspension on April 19-20: Caution for Weekend Outings
The Maihama Resort Line will gradually introduce QR code-based tickets starting in the summer of 2025.
The types of tickets that will use QR codes include single journey tickets, season tickets, group tickets, and day passes. Passengers will be able to use these tickets by presenting the printed QR code to the automatic ticket gates. This change from the traditional magnetic tickets allows for easier recycling of materials.
Transportation IC cards can still be used, and the renovation of the ticket gates will widen the passages, making it more accessible for wheelchair users and strollers. The transition to QR code tickets is expected to be completed by the end of fiscal year 2026.
