Railways are in the red, and buses are in the red. As the number of public transportation systems whose survival is in doubt increases, how can local residents secure "transport for daily life"? Also, how can public transportation systems be maintained in areas with declining populations? The guests are Kazuya Itatani, a professor at Ryukoku University and a member of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's expert council considering the future of local lines, and Kosuke Motani, a senior researcher at the Japan Research Institute who visits cities and towns across the country and is knowledgeable about regional economies. #Local line #Loss #Transport density #Hitachinaka Seaside Railway #Yoshida Chiaki #Upper and lower separation system #Transportation taxBS TV Tokyo "Nikkei News Plus 9" program website https://www.bs-tvtokyo.co.jp/plus9/
