Striving for earth-friendly urban functions

Development of a new transportation system has been underway as a solution for addressing global warming, air pollution, noise and various other problems facing the global environment. At the "Transport City Panorama", visitors will be introduced to the principle technologies that have already begun to actively deal with such issues. Here, visitors will also be able to enjoy the simulated experience of operating a full scale "jTRAM", the eco-friendly ultra-low-floor tram.
