・ About the first "Tateyama Kurobe" global branding promotion meeting
At the meeting, it became a fierce discussion with Kansai Electric's officers who were disappointing in terms of safety measures against the governor of Toyama Prefecture, who was pushing for the commercialization of the Kurobe route (from Kurobe Gorge Railway Sugadaira Station to Kurobe Dam). Was also featured.
On the other hand, there were many remarks from the “safety aspect” about the early opening of the alpine route from the chairman of the Tateyama Sanso union and the director of the Nagano Natural Environment Office, the Ministry of the Environment. I felt that this article would not be communicated to the general public as an observer.
・ At the Toyama Prefectural Hall, the 1 working group of the branding promotion meeting and media handling
If you read the proceedings (remarks), the president of Tateyama Sanso Cooperative and the head of the Nagano Natural Environment Office had serious comments about safety and the natural environment regarding the early opening of the Alpine Route and the expansion of business hours. I understand. However, it seems that the handling in the local newspaper of 7 month 29 date is small.
・ Introduction of opinion by Azohara Onsen Goya Izumi Sasaki
In the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route, the number of domestic customers has decreased in recent years, mainly for group customers, and this is managed by increasing the number of inbound customers (overseas customers) that concentrate on the snowy Otani season. As a result, there is a growing demand for the opening of business, but in the event of an accident, everything is ruined.
The Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route has various ways to enjoy not only in the Snow Otani season (until late 6) but also in other seasons.
Although it is Tateyama-machi with a small financial scale, I will introduce what I can do in Tateyama-machi and what I want to do in the next issue.

What Tateyama Town can do for the “Tateyama Kurobe” world brand is part 2 2017 year 9 month 27 day publication
This is why the operator of the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route wants to extend the snowy Otani season, which is not canceled unless it becomes inoperable due to bad weather that day, even on 1 days.
Because the parking lot near Tateyama Station is full from early morning, you may sometimes see an elderly person walking from a temporary parking lot more than 900m away.
Therefore, a few years ago, we proposed to conduct a proof experiment for Toyama Prefecture, which manages the nearest parking lot (for 230 cars) from the station, even in the high season alone (about 1 day 500 yen). I refused.
Those who come with “Beautiful weather, even famous waterfall and coffee” can walk long hills because the parking lot close to famous waterfall is full. However, this was also NO from the prefecture.
I couldn't help, so I thought Tateyama could do something else to make tourists happy.
One of the 1 is the removal of utility poles from the Tateyama station square. We will brush up the scenery suitable for the entrance of Tateyama Kurobe.
However, although the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has relied on a grant of approximately 1 / 2 for the project cost, the rest will be borne by the town. Therefore, we ask for support from Tateyama Juan nationwide through hometown tax payment (donation).
