Crowded train in Tokyo after consecutive holidays [COVID-19] [extended emergency declaration]

f:id:acertainfox512:20200507170453j:plain

 

 

Hello!

 

 

 Today is the first weekday with an extension of the emergency declaration!

 

I think the crowded trains in the morning in Tokyo are very famous in Japan

(worldwide?lol),

but when I wondered what it was like today, NAVER had something like this!

 

【Very crowded at the end of GW ... Noisy "commuter train" seen on Twitter】(*NAVER)

 

As long as you see tweets and images on Twitter in the article, tthe occupancy rate is certainly less than 100% ..

 

 

It doesn't look like it's so crowded ...

(↑ Tokyo residents are paralyzed. Lol)

 

By the way,

 

 

*** Estimated train congestion rate

      Capacity boarding.

      Can be seated or grabbed by hanging straps or handrails near doors

A guide for 150% congestion
      Spread the paper and read the newspaper easily

A guide for 180% congestion
      Can read newspapers by forcing them to fold

A guide for 200% congestion
      There is a feeling of pressure when the bodies touch each other,

      but it can be read if it is about a weekly magazine

      Every time the train shakes, body becomes slanted and I can not move.

      Can not move even the hands

 

*** Congestion rate ranking of major Tokyo routes ***

10th:181% JR East Sobu Line Rapid Shin-Koiwa Station → Kinshicho Station

                                 7:34~8:34 a.m.

*snip*

1st:199% Tokyo Metro Tozai Line Kiba Station → Monzen Nakamachi Station

                                7:50~8:50 a.m.

(*mynavi)

 

 

as above.

 

About 180% to 200% seems to be the "rush hour congestion"

that you can imagine!

 

Compared to that,

I feel that there is still a self-restraint effect,

but I think that many people were forced to go to work

because the company could not decide the policy.

The extension was decided during the consecutive holidays...

 

Please be careful when you go out!
