We are participating as a member of the redevelopment association for the "Futako Tamagawa Rise" urban redevelopment project in front of Futako Tamagawa Station, and have been working with Setagaya Ward, Tokyu Land Corporation, and other landowners to "urban and community development in harmony with a rich natural environment of water, greenery, and light."

The project was evaluated comprehensively for being the first in the world to receive LEED ND (Neighborhood development category) Gold certification, for concentrating commercial, office, public facilities and housing to create a high-density, compact, multi-functional city, and for preserving the ecosystem that recreates the original scenery of the Tama River.

Environmental Considerations at Futako Tamagawa Rise

The city was waiting for completion.
It wasn't just humans.

Futako Tamagawa is a town with rare charm even within Tokyo, where the city and nature blend together. The redevelopment project "Futako Tamagawa Rise," in which Tokyu Railways is involved, has received Japan's first preliminary gold certification in the "Urban and community development category" of LEED, a global environmental certification. The project connects the ecosystem from the Tama River to the Kokubunji Cliff Line, and features a rooftop garden where visitors can experience the rich natural environment and creatures while still in the city. In addition, the project is a sustainable urban and community development that eliminates energy and resource waste, and adopts barrier-free and universal design that is designed from the perspective of people who enjoy walking, making it an ideal urban life for the future that is comfortable for both people and the environment.

All destination information displays installed at stations have been converted to LED*.
*Some stations are equipped with energy-saving LCD destination displays.
・Converting signals to LED
We are promoting the conversion to LED for traffic signals, crossing warning lights, crossing operation response lights and auxiliary lights *, hand signal substitutes, etc. The conversion of crossing lights to LED has been completed on the entire Setagaya Line.
* Railroad crossing operation indicator light: A light that indicates to the driver that the railroad crossing is normally closed.

When braking, it generates electricity to allow other trains to run.

On Tokyu lines, all trains are equipped with regenerative brakes, which convert the kinetic energy of the train into electricity when it brakes.
This regenerative power is used to run other trains.
In addition, a "multiple-line power feeding system for up and down lines" has been introduced on the entire line *, which connects the up and down lines with jumper wires and enables regenerative power to be sent in the shortest possible time, thereby contributing to energy conservation.

*Excluding some sections such as the underground sections of Den-en-toshi Line, the Setagaya Line, and the Kodomo-no-Kuni Line.
