Hatazawa bus service resumes; Kisarazu–Tokyo buses skip three stops
Hatazawa and Koitogawa Loop buses resumed normal service. Check suspended stops and allow for buses filling up.

Nitto resumed normal Hatazawa service from the first bus on September 24. Koitogawa Loop buses also operate normally. The previous notice had no reopening estimate for Hatazawa.
Stops skipped on September 24
All Kisarazu–Tokyo highway buses skip Kimitsu Seitetsusho, Higashimon-iriguchi and Kosoku Sakurai. Local Kisarazu–Futtsu buses skip the stops from Chuomon-iriguchi through Sakurai-higashicho in both directions.
Full buses and reduced trains
Separate passengers reported people unable to board full Tokyo-bound buses at Kisarazu Station and Tokyo Yaesu-bound buses at Kaneda on the morning of September 24. These reports concern particular morning services, not every route or departure.
The Shinjuku–Kisarazu route is first-come, first-served, with no reservations; passengers must wait for the next bus if full. JR's 16:30 notice on September 24 puts Chiba–Anegasaki trains at about 20% of normal frequency. Anegasaki–Kisarazu remains closed, and replacement buses from September 28 are still under consideration. Check today's operator notices and your boarding stop before travel.
