This week, at the Mobility Consortium, we heard from Mr. Ota, Executive Managing Director of JR East, and at the Creative City Consortium, from Mr. Tanaka, President of Tokyu, regarding railway usage. Although both meetings were held in urban settings, the main focus of discussion at both was “changes in lifestyle and mobility.”
