JR East to Suspend Some Greater Tokyo Area Lines on September 22 Due to Typhoon No. 25
The Tokyo Metropolitan Bureau of Transportation will sequentially end advance sales of magnetic-type one-day passes from September 30.
Advance sales of the Toei Marugoto Pass and the Toei Bus One-Day Pass will end on September 30. Sales of these two ticket types, along with the Toei Bus Flat-Rate Commuter Pass, on board buses will end on March 31, 2027.
The decision is due to changes in the procurement environment for magnetic tickets, making it difficult to secure a stable supply. The bureau aims to improve convenience and reduce environmental impact by promoting a shift to digital tickets and IC cards.
The Toei Bus Digital One-Day Pass will continue to be available for purchase from 28 days before the date of use. The Toei Bus IC One-Day Pass will continue to be sold on board buses, while the IC Toei Marugoto Pass will remain available from ticket machines at selected Toei Subway and Nippori-Toneri Liner stations. For the time being, same-day magnetic tickets will continue to be sold at Toei Bus depot service counters, all Toei Subway and Nippori-Toneri Liner stations, commuter pass sales offices, and other locations.
