JR East Temporarily Suspends Services on Yamada Line between Kami-Yonai and Kawauchi Stations to Ensure Stable Transportation from October 15 for One Month
JR East announces a temporary suspension of service on the Yamada Line, between Kami-Yonai and Kawauchi stations entirely, and on the Kawauchi-Miyako station section, parts of trains will be suspended from October 15 to November 15.
The intention behind this suspension is to ensure stability in transportation, especially for commuting purposes, due to significant delays caused by wheelspin from fallen leaves. During this period, there will be turnaround operations throughout the day between Morioka and Kami-Yonai stations, and turnaround operations will also be implemented between Kawauchi, Moichi, and Miyako stations, focusing on morning and evening hours.
There will be no alternative transportation provided for the suspended service. However, alternative transportation will be available on the parallel sections of the “106 Express/Express Bus” operated by Iwate Prefecture North Bus.
