We have recently added a new feature to our timetable service for those who use trains and buses in fixed areas, such as commuting to work or school.
Previous timetables only provided information on departure times from stations and bus stops, but with section-based timetables, you can check the arrival time at the nearest station or bus stop to your destination, such as your workplace or school.
This section format timetable allows you to compare multiple routes that can be used in the same section at the same time, so when you want to move quickly, such as whether to wait for one train and take the next rapid train or take another route, etc. It is useful for commuting to work or school, such as searching for detours when trains or buses are delayed.
In the future, we will continue to improve convenience for Ekitan.com users, promote the regional marketing platform concept, optimally connect local businesses and services with consumers, and contribute to regional revitalization and regional revitalization. Masu.
