JR East will carry out concentrated construction work using an extended continuous work period between Tokyo and Shinagawa stations on the Yokosuka Line on November 7.
As a result, train services on this section will be suspended. Trains from the Chiba area will turn back at Tokyo Station, while trains from the Kurihama area will turn back at Shinagawa Station, so there will be no service reductions on other sections due to the construction work. No alternative transportation via other railway companies will be provided for the service suspension. Passengers are encouraged to use the Tokaido Line, Yamanote Line, or Keihin-Tohoku Line between Tokyo and Shinagawa stations.
The Narita Express limited express service will also be suspended all day between Tokyo and Shinjuku/Oofuna stations. In addition, services No. 46, 50, 52, and 54 on November 6 will be partially suspended between Tokyo and Oofuna stations, while services No. 46, 48, 50, 52, and 54 will be partially suspended between Tokyo and Shinjuku stations. On November 8, services No. 1, 3, 5, and 7 will be partially suspended between Oofuna and Tokyo stations, while service No. 1 will be partially suspended between Shinjuku and Tokyo stations.
JR East says that promoting mechanization by utilizing the work period will enable tunnel repair work and routine maintenance to be carried out quickly and efficiently, improving safety and service reliability.
