JR East Announces Service Resumption on Chiba Lines Affected by Typhoon No. 25

On October 23, JR East announced its outlook for the resumption of services on railway lines in Chiba Prefecture that have been suspended due to Typhoon No. 25.

Services on the Uchibo Line between Anegasaki and Nagaura stations are expected to resume from the first train on November 9. All Limited Express Sazanami services are also scheduled to resume operations on the same day.

On November 8, services between Anegasaki and Kisarazu stations will be suspended throughout the day to remove temporary turning-back facilities installed at Nagaura Station and prepare for the resumption of operations the following day. Substitute bus services between Anegasaki and Nagaura stations will also operate on November 8, but no substitute bus services will be provided between Nagaura and Kisarazu stations. The bike-sharing service operating between Anegasaki and Nagaura stations since October 14 will remain available on November 8.

Meanwhile, between Kururi and Kazusa-Kameyama stations on the Kururi Line, numerous instances of damage affecting train operations have occurred. Following consideration of restoration efforts, JR East has concluded that it will abandon plans to restore railway service. Substitute transportation by bus and other means will continue until March 31, 2027, the day before the scheduled discontinuation date.

Some train cancellations are also occurring on lines that are currently in operation.
