Tokaido Shinkansen May Be Suspended on August 28-29 Due to Typhoon No. 10

JR Central has updated its operational plans for the Tokaido Shinkansen in response to the approaching Typhoon No. 10.

Strong rain is also forecasted for August 27, which may result in extended operational suspensions.

Moreover, a high number of passengers is expected around the periods before and after the planned suspensions, particularly on August 27 and 30. Passengers are advised to reserve their designated seats in advance for station visits and travel.

JR Central is closely monitoring weather information and the status of train operations, advising passengers to consider potential changes to their plans. Tickets valid from August 27 to 29 will be eligible for changes and refunds without any fees.
