Hankyu Ferry to Open New Shinmoji Terminal in Fall 2029

Hankyu Ferry will open a new terminal at Shinmoji Port in the autumn of 2029.

To modernize the facilities of the 35-year-old Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 and strengthen disaster-prevention capabilities, the company will develop a single terminal with two berths, allowing two vessels to dock and stay simultaneously. Construction is set to begin in the spring of 2027. Following completion in the autumn of 2028, the existing terminals will be demolished and work on a pedestrian bridge will proceed. The new terminal is scheduled to fully open in the autumn of 2029, when boarding will be available from both berths.

The terminal will feature a barrier-free design and strengthen business continuity planning and preparedness for disaster risks. In addition to pursuing net-zero energy building certification and utilizing solar panels, the facility will include an observation deck and a welcome park where passengers can walk their pets before boarding.

The site is located between the current Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 at Shinmoji Port.
