About this pageAI generated

This page reports that 68 railway sections totaling 1,366 kilometers were closed nationwide over 30 years from fiscal 1996 to 2025. Given that Japan's total railway network is approximately 27,000 kilometers, the closed lines represent roughly 5% of the entire network. The report reveals the severe challenges facing regional transportation infrastructure, with one-third of the closures concentrated in Hokkaido.
