The {{Nihongo|'''Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line'''|東京メトロ副都心線|Tōkyō Metoro Fukutoshin-sen}}, formally the {{Nihongo|'''No. 13 Fukutoshin Line'''|13号線副都心線|Jūsangō-sen Fukutoshin-sen}}, is a {{convert|20.2|km|adj=on|sp=us}} subway line operated by [[Tokyo Metro]] in west-central [[Tokyo]] and [[Wako, Saitama]], Japan. The newest line in the Tokyo subway network, it opened in stages between 1994 and 2008.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://mdn.mainichi.jp/national/archive/news/2008/06/13/20080613p2a00m0na012000c.html |title=毎日jp(毎日新聞) |access-date=2008-06-14 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://archive.today/20120710182830/http://mdn.mainichi.jp/national/archive/news/2008/06/13/20080613p2a00m0na012000c.html |archive-date=2012-07-10 }}</ref> On average, the Fukutoshin Line carried 362,654 passengers daily in 2017,<ref name="ridership"/> the lowest of all Tokyo Metro lines and roughly one third of its sister [[Tokyo Metro Yūrakuchō Line]] (1,124,478). |
|||
==Overview== |
|||
The section presently under construction will connect to [[Shinjuku]] and [[Shibuya]] via [[Zoshigaya]], [[Sendagaya]] and [[Meiji Shrine]], with service scheduled to start in June [[2008]]. Through services to Kawagoe-shi station on the [[Tōbu Tōjō Main Line]], and Hanno station on the [[Seibu Ikebukuro Line]] will be offered. Starting in [[2012]], the [[Tokyu Toyoko Line]] will move to share the line's Shibuya terminus and offer through services on the [[Minato Mirai Line]] to [[Motomachi Chūkagai Station]], in [[Yokohama]]. |

The Fukutoshin Line is the deepest metro line in Tokyo, with an average depth of {{convert|27|m|sp=us}}.<ref name="yahoo">{{cite web|url=https://blogs.yahoo.co.jp/tucasa_kenko/53685223.html|title=東京メトロ・副都心線 14日開業|website=MONO好き親父の一輪車乗りの独り言|access-date=3 March 2019}}</ref> At [[Shinjuku-sanchōme Station]], the line passes under the [[Tokyo Metro Marunouchi Line|Marunouchi]] and above the [[Toei Shinjuku Line|Shinjuku]] lines at a depth of {{convert|15|m|sp=us}}, with a gap of only {{convert|11|cm|sp=us}} to the Shinjuku Line tunnel.<ref name="yahoo"/> The deepest section is at the immediately adjacent [[Higashi-Shinjuku Station]], where the line goes down to {{convert|35|m|sp=us}}, partly due to an underground space reservation for a possible future extension of the [[Jōetsu Shinkansen]] to Shinjuku.<ref name="yahoo"/> |
|||
It is the second Tokyo Metro line to feature express services, after the [[Tokyo Metro Tōzai Line|Tōzai Line]]; however, unlike the Tōzai Line (where rapid services are only offered on the {{STN|Tōyōchō}} – {{STN|Nishi-Funabashi}} section), the Fukutoshin Line offers express services throughout the line, a first for Tokyo Metro. Express trains pass local trains at Higashi-Shinjuku, where additional tracks are installed for this purpose. Local trains stop at all stations. |
|||
==Development== |
|||
[[Image:CIMG2273.JPG|thumb|Construction underway on the Fukutoshin Line in northern Shibuya]] |
|||
''Fukutoshin'' is [[Japanese language|Japanese]] for "secondary city center," and the Fukutoshin Line connects three of Tokyo's secondary city centers: [[Ikebukuro]], [[Shinjuku]] and [[Shibuya]]. Presently, only [[East Japan Railway Company|JR East]] has rail service between the three (on the [[Yamanote Line]] and [[Saikyo Line]]). The new line was conceived to relieve congestion along this busy corridor, and to provide convenient through service between the northwest of Tokyo, the southwest of Tokyo and the city center. |
|||
When first opened, the line operated [[Through train|through services]] to [[Kawagoeshi Station]] on the [[Tobu Tojo Line]] and [[Hannō Station]] on the [[Seibu Ikebukuro Line]]. From 16 March 2013, the [[Tōkyū Tōyoko Line]] moved to share the line's Shibuya terminus, and since then through services have operated onto the [[Minatomirai Line]] via the Tōyoko Line, terminating at [[Motomachi-Chūkagai Station]] in [[Yokohama]].<ref name="tobu20120724">{{cite web |url= http://www.tobu.co.jp/file/pdf/9e67f9298f0c2a004a27615807b6cc25/120724.pdf?date=20120723185709|script-title=ja:東武東上線がより便利に! 自由が丘、横浜、元町・中華街方面とつながります!|trans-title= The Tojo Tobu Line will be even more convenient!

|||
The line was initially planned in [[1972]] as a run from [[Shiki, Saitama]] to Shinjuku, with the possibility of further extension to Shibuya, [[Shinagawa Station|Shinagawa]] and [[Tokyo International Airport|Haneda Airport]]. In [[1985]], a second Ministry of Transportation committee proposed that the line terminate at Shibuya. Part of the northern end of the original plan line became unnecessary following improvements to the [[Tobu Tojo Line]] and the beginning of through service from the [[Tokyo Metro Yurakucho Line|Yurakucho Line]]. |
|||
Since the opening of the section between Ikebukuro and Shibuya station, the Fukutoshin Line operates as a [[one-man operation]] subway line between [[Kotake-Mukaihara Station]] and [[Shibuya Station]] where chest-high [[platform edge doors]] are installed on the station platforms to aid the drivers.<ref>[http://search-tokyometro.dga.jp/?go=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tokyometro.jp%2Fnews%2F2008%2F2008-25.html%26f%3Dr&rid=1272384&ref=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tokyometro.jp%2Fnews%2F2009%2F2009-14.html&PHPSESSID=09f5379829a808a353325d56e552d97d 14 May 2008. Accessed 1 August 2013.]</ref> From 28 March 2015, one-man operation was extended from Kotake-Mukaihara to [[Wakōshi Station|Wakōshi station]],<ref>{{Cite web |date=2015-03-10 |title=有楽町線 |lang=ja |url=https://www.tokyometro.jp/news/images_h/metroNews20150310_23.pdf |access-date=2023-05-21 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200309144835/https://www.tokyometro.jp/news/images_h/metroNews20150310_23.pdf |archive-date=2020-03-09}}</ref> making this the third Tokyo Metro line to fully operate as one-man operation, following the [[Tokyo Metro Namboku Line|Namboku Line]] and Maruonuchi Line. |

Like most Tokyo Metro lines, the first carriage of the Fukutoshin Line is designated a "women-only car" before and during the morning rush hour. During these hours only women, children of [[Elementary schools in Japan|elementary school]] age or younger and physically [[disabled]] passengers (and their [[caregiver|carers]]) may board the first carriage.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.tokyometro.jp/safety/attention/women/|title=女性専用車|東京メトロ|website=www.TokyoMetro.jp|access-date=3 March 2019}}</ref> |

[[File:Construction of Kita-Sando Station at April 6th 2006.jpg|thumb|Construction at Kitasandō Station, 2006]] |

''Fukutoshin'' is Japanese for "secondary city center", and the Fukutoshin Line connects three of Tokyo's secondary city centers: [[Ikebukuro]], [[Shinjuku]] and [[Shibuya, Tokyo|Shibuya]]. Prior to its opening, only [[East Japan Railway Company|JR East]] had rail service between the three (on the [[Yamanote Line]], the [[Saikyō Line]] and the [[Shōnan-Shinjuku Line]]). The new line was conceived to relieve congestion along this busy corridor, and to provide convenient through service between the northwest, the southwest and the central part of Tokyo served by the Yamanote Line. |
|||
The line was initially planned in 1972 as a run from [[Shiki Station (Saitama)|Shiki]] to Shinjuku, with the possibility of further extension to Shibuya, {{STN|Shinagawa}} and [[Haneda Airport]]. In 1985, a second Ministry of Transportation committee proposed that the line terminate at Shibuya. Part of the northern end of the original plan line became unnecessary following improvements to the [[Tobu Tojo Line]] and the beginning of through service from the [[Tokyo Metro Yurakucho Line|Yurakucho Line]]. |
|||
The original plan for the Fukutoshin Line only contained fifteen stations, however in May 1999 a plan for an additional station "Shin-Sendagaya" (later renamed {{STN|Kitasandō}}) between {{STN|Shinjuku-sanchōme}} and {{STN|Meiji-Jingūmae}} was included due to an increase in demand from the area.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/19991112084526/http://www.tokyometro.go.jp/news/99-12.html より便利な地下鉄を目指して] 20 May 1999.

A {{convert|3.2|km|abbr=on}} segment from [[Kotake-Mukaihara]] to [[Ikebukuro]], running parallel to the [[Tokyo Metro Yurakucho Line|Yurakucho Line]] on separate tracks began operation in 1994. This segment was initially known as the {{Nihongo|Yūrakuchō New Line|有楽町新線|Yūrakuchō Shin-sen}}, and was operated with no intermediate stops. |

The newest segment connecting the districts of [[Shinjuku, Tokyo|Shinjuku]] and [[Shibuya, Tokyo|Shibuya]] via {{STN|Zōshigaya}}, {{STN|Shinjuku-sanchōme}}, and {{STN|Meiji-Jingūmae}} (‘Harajuku’) opened for service on 14 June 2008, officially completing the Fukutoshin Line.<ref>{{Cite web |date=27 March 2007 |title=副都心線・有楽町線のダイヤが決定! |trans-title=Fukutoshin Line and Yurakucho Line timetables have been decided! |url=http://www.tokyometro.jp/news/2008/2008-17.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170718015046/http://www.tokyometro.jp/news/2008/2008-17.html |archive-date=18 July 2017 |access-date=31 January 2024 |website=tokyometro.jp |language=ja}}</ref> Service to the {{STN|Senkawa}} and {{STN|Kanamechō}} stations, which had been bypassed by the Yūrakuchō New Line, also started on the same day. |

The Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line (東京メトロ副都心線, Tōkyō Metoro Fukutoshin-sen), formally the No. 13 Fukutoshin Line (13号線副都心線, Jūsangō-sen Fukutoshin-sen), is a 20.2-kilometer (12.6 mi) subway line operated by Tokyo Metro in west-central Tokyo and Wako, Saitama, Japan. The newest line in the Tokyo subway network, it opened in stages between 1994 and 2008.[2] On average, the Fukutoshin Line carried 362,654 passengers daily in 2017,[1] the lowest of all Tokyo Metro lines and roughly one third of its sister Tokyo Metro Yūrakuchō Line (1,124,478).
Overview
[edit]The Fukutoshin Line is the deepest metro line in Tokyo, with an average depth of 27 meters (89 ft).[3] At Shinjuku-sanchōme Station, the line passes under the Marunouchi and above the Shinjuku lines at a depth of 15 meters (49 ft), with a gap of only 11 centimeters (4.3 in) to the Shinjuku Line tunnel.[3] The deepest section is at the immediately adjacent Higashi-Shinjuku Station, where the line goes down to 35 meters (115 ft), partly due to an underground space reservation for a possible future extension of the Jōetsu Shinkansen to Shinjuku.[3]
It is the second Tokyo Metro line to feature express services, after the Tōzai Line; however, unlike the Tōzai Line (where rapid services are only offered on the Tōyōchō – Nishi-Funabashi section), the Fukutoshin Line offers express services throughout the line, a first for Tokyo Metro. Express trains pass local trains at Higashi-Shinjuku, where additional tracks are installed for this purpose. Local trains stop at all stations.
When first opened, the line operated through services to Kawagoeshi Station on the Tobu Tojo Line and Hannō Station on the Seibu Ikebukuro Line. From 16 March 2013, the Tōkyū Tōyoko Line moved to share the line's Shibuya terminus, and since then through services have operated onto the Minatomirai Line via the Tōyoko Line, terminating at Motomachi-Chūkagai Station in Yokohama.[4] This is a rare instance of a Tokyo Metro train operating on four companies' tracks.[5]
Since the opening of the section between Ikebukuro and Shibuya station, the Fukutoshin Line operates as a one-man operation subway line between Kotake-Mukaihara Station and Shibuya Station where chest-high platform edge doors are installed on the station platforms to aid the drivers.[6] From 28 March 2015, one-man operation was extended from Kotake-Mukaihara to Wakōshi station,[7] making this the third Tokyo Metro line to fully operate as one-man operation, following the Namboku Line and Maruonuchi Line.
Like most Tokyo Metro lines, the first carriage of the Fukutoshin Line is designated a "women-only car" before and during the morning rush hour. During these hours only women, children of elementary school age or younger and physically disabled passengers (and their carers) may board the first carriage.[8]

History
[edit]Fukutoshin is Japanese for "secondary city center", and the Fukutoshin Line connects three of Tokyo's secondary city centers: Ikebukuro, Shinjuku and Shibuya. Prior to its opening, only JR East had rail service between the three (on the Yamanote Line, the Saikyō Line and the Shōnan-Shinjuku Line). The new line was conceived to relieve congestion along this busy corridor, and to provide convenient through service between the northwest, the southwest and the central part of Tokyo served by the Yamanote Line.
The line was initially planned in 1972 as a run from Shiki to Shinjuku, with the possibility of further extension to Shibuya, Shinagawa and Haneda Airport. In 1985, a second Ministry of Transportation committee proposed that the line terminate at Shibuya. Part of the northern end of the original plan line became unnecessary following improvements to the Tobu Tojo Line and the beginning of through service from the Yurakucho Line.
The original plan for the Fukutoshin Line only contained fifteen stations, however in May 1999 a plan for an additional station "Shin-Sendagaya" (later renamed Kitasandō) between Shinjuku-sanchōme and Meiji-Jingūmae was included due to an increase in demand from the area.[11]
A 3.2 km (2.0 mi) segment from Kotake-Mukaihara to Ikebukuro, running parallel to the Yurakucho Line on separate tracks began operation in 1994. This segment was initially known as the Yūrakuchō New Line (有楽町新線, Yūrakuchō Shin-sen), and was operated with no intermediate stops.
The newest segment connecting the districts of Shinjuku and Shibuya via Zōshigaya, Shinjuku-sanchōme, and Meiji-Jingūmae (‘Harajuku’) opened for service on 14 June 2008, officially completing the Fukutoshin Line.[12] Service to the Senkawa and Kanamechō stations, which had been bypassed by the Yūrakuchō New Line, also started on the same day.
Technical problems resulted in delays of up to 30 minutes during the Fukutoshin Line's first few days of operation.[13]
On 6 March 2010, express services began stopping at Meiji-Jingūmae on weekends and holidays.[14]
From 10 September 2012, 10-car 5050-4000 series sets entered revenue service on the Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line, with inter-running through to the Seibu Ikebukuro Line (via Seibu Yurakucho Line) and Tobu Tojo Line.[15]
From the revised timetable effective 18 March 2023, through services to and from the Sotetsu Line courtesy of the Tokyu and Sotetsu Shin-Yokohama Line began operation.[16] This operation sees most express services continuing as far south as Shōnandai Station on the Sotetsu Izumino Line by way of the Toyoko Line.
