In addition to changes to operating routes, this is a pretty major reorganization packed with updates: changes to bus stop layouts at each railway station, the start of late-night bus service, changes to the number of services, the discontinuation of some routes and bus stops, and changes to bus stop names (10 locations)!

↑ The booklet data about the reorganization has been posted on the official Hankyu Bus website, but there is so much in it…! You’ll want to read this carefully〜!

↑ The three bus stops around Ashiya Municipal Hospital are apparently getting major name changes: “Ashiya Hospital East Entrance → Sanroku Park,” “Ashiya Hospital South Entrance → Sanjūkyū Banchi,” and “Ashiya Hospital West Entrance → Sakura Sandō.” There will also be more buses passing in front of Ashiya Hospital during the morning and evening hours, plus the start of late-night bus service, so it looks like things will get a lot more convenient!

Since this is a large-scale reorganization affecting the entire city, from the Okuiike area up in the mountains to the Shio-Ashiya area by the sea, it seems relevant to all Ashiya residents, as well as people who study, work, or hang out in Ashiya… and even people who come here for hospital visits! Be sure to read at least the parts covering where you live or places you often go!
Ma-kun, thank you for the tip!!
