Guide for Shibuya station

The area around Shibuya Station is lined with skyscrapers, and due to the unique impression of the past, it is undergoing a big transformation in the near future.The development of this area, centered on Shibuya station, began in 2020 and continues until 2027.In order to achieve a certain degree of completion by the Tokyo Olympic Games in 2020, development is progressing rapidly.

Since Shibuya station is currently under development, there may be a big change such as the passage is changed or the platform is moved.When you use Shibuya station, please be careful about the information about the construction.

3 reasons why Shibuya station is easy to get lost

One reason for the development of Shibuya Station is that it makes Shibuya Station, which was too complicated, easy to use.Shibuya station, which has been increasing and improving, is the maze itself.It may be the peak of complexity until the development is complete.

Then I’ll go over the complicated present Shibuya station.In Shibuya Station, there are 9 lines of 4 companies.

Many of the other large stations are located parallel to the JR line. However, this Shibuya station is located in the valley, so it is impossible to construct the station building parallel to the JR line, so it has a variety of directions in various directions.

The three dimensional Shibuya station that has a different line and a three dimensional Shibuya station on different floors is a “three dimensional maze.”.Learn why Shibuya Station is easy to get lost, so let’s use it for the attack on Shibuya Station!

The station is 3 stories above ground and the basement 5 stories in three dimensional

Shibuya Station is one of the reasons why Shibuya Station is easy to get lost, so Shibuya Station has 8 levels.Let’s get a thorough understanding of the hierarchy between the above-ground and underground areas.

Shibuya Station Hierarchy

In order to understand Shibuya Station, “Ground third floor and fifth floor” are important points.The underground is the structure of a station with a lot more hierarchy.When you use it by transferring, it will take more time because the floor is far from the floor.

And in the station, you should understand the following things thoroughly.

You only know how many stations you want to use, so it is the first step to attack Shibuya station.Also, when you enter the station, you have to be aware of what floor you’re on, so you need to be conscious of the entrance.You should also check the number display on the stairs and escalators.

Also, you need to be careful because the floor of the platform and the floor of the ticket gate are often different.

There is a line whose name is changed at Shibuya station.
One reason why Shibuya station is lost is that there is a line whose name is changed at Shibuya station.There are two routes whose name is changed.By keeping this in mind, you get less lost.

2 where the name of the line changes

Both are easy to remember because they are called “Tokyo Metro 」⇔「 Tokyu.”.

There is no concourse that leads to all lines even though the station is wide

One of the reasons why Shibuya Station is difficult to understand is that there is no’ Concourse’ which is the center and the center.At a complex place, you can find the direction and course you want to go with if there is a center square or an intersection.

However, Shibuya station doesn’t have a concourse, and there is no place to think about the user.It seems that there is a plan to create a concourse in the development of the development.It is patience until the development is completed.

Shibuya Station’s home floor and the nearest ticket

There are 9 lines at Shibuya Station.Let’s check the name of the line you are using, Mark.There are many marks in the station, so if you memorize the mark or color, it will be easier to move.

The Saikyo Line and the Shonan Shinjuku Line are under the jurisdiction of JR East, which is the same as the Yamanote Line.However, the distance was far from the Yamanote Line home, and it was connected by a long passageway.In order to eliminate the inconvenience, the construction work is progressing parallel to the platform of the Yamanote line.It is the platform of the Saikyo Line and the Shonan Shinjuku Line that change gradually until the completion of the construction in the spring of 2020.

The Saikyo Line and the Shonan Shinjuku Line also arrive at and depart from Rinkai Line and Narita Express.Let’s do well.

The construction of the Saikyo Line and the Shonan Shinjuku Line continues to change (as in the spring of 2019).I don’t know what kind of change it is, so I think it’s best to see the guide from the JR Central Ticket Gate and move to the platform.
