[National First!] All bus stops on the route will be converted to smart bus stops! Operations will begin on March 21 for two airport bus routes to Kitakyushu Airport - Aiming to reduce the bus stop management workload that has increased nearly tenfold during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Nishitetsu Bus Kitakyushu Co., Ltd. will introduce smart bus stops provided by Nishitetsu M-Tech Co., Ltd. and YE DIGITAL Inc. at all bus stops on two routes of the Kitakyushu Airport Airport Bus (Kokura Line and Orito/Kurosaki/Gakken City Line), starting operations on March 21. This will be the first time in Japan that smart bus stops are operated at every bus stop from the starting point to the endpoint of a bus route.
The two routes of the Kitakyushu Airport Airport Bus being introduced have had their schedules revised to align with aircraft operation times, and employees are replacing the timetables at each bus stop accordingly. Due to the impact of the recent COVID-19 pandemic, aircraft operation times have been frequently changed, resulting in a workload that is approximately ten times greater than usual in fiscal 2020. This introduction will significantly improve the efficiency of bus stop management operations. Additionally, new bus stops (timetables) specifically for the Kitakyushu Airport Airport Bus will be installed separately from existing bus stops. By distinguishing these bus stops from others, a clearer bus stop environment will be created.
