JR Shibuya Station's New South Exit Gate to Begin Operation on July 21
JR East Japan has announced that the new south exit gate at Shibuya Station will be relocated to the new station building starting from July 21, 2024. The current south exit gate, which is currently located in the Hotel Mets Ebisu direction, will close at 0:30 AM on the same day.
After the relocation, the new south exit gate will provide direct access to both the Yamanote Line and Saikyo Line platforms. On the Saikyo Line side, escalators, stairs, and elevators will be available, while the Yamanote Line side will initially have escalators only. Stairs and elevators are being installed for use starting in the summer of 2025.
The location of the new south exit gate is part of the ongoing construction of the new station building. The full opening of the new station building is planned for fiscal year 2026. The six-story building will have a total floor area of approximately 5,300 square meters. Floors 4 to 6 will be dedicated to rental offices, and the third floor will house office entrances and shops. There will be a total of four shops, two inside the gate area and two outside. The northern free passage is currently in provisional use and is also under construction.
