Japan: Train fault disrupting services in Central Hokkaido Feb. 12
Malfunction disrupting Rapid Airport trains in Central Hokkaido, Japan, Feb. 12. Maintain flexible itineraries.
A vehicle malfunction between Sapporo and New Chitose Airport (CTS) stations has led to the suspension of services along the Rapid Airport trains in Central Hokkaido as of the late morning of Feb. 12. It remains unclear when services will normalize.
Rail disruptions could continue through the evening commuting hours amid ongoing repair operations. Increased demand for other forms of transport is likely, especially to and from CTS.
Confirm rail schedules. Use alternative transport for time-sensitive travel, including to CTS.
