Saikyo Line/Shonan-Shinjuku Line Platform in Shibuya Station in 2019 May
For a long time, Shibuya Station had an inconvenient layout due to space restriction: Yamanote Line platform was 350m ahead of this spot. The problem was fixed in 2020 June, when Saikyo Line/Shonan-Shinjuku Line platform was moved 350m north.
This photo was taken during the preparation of the move. The new platform was going to be higher than the old platform. When the southbound track was switched in 2018 May, this platform had to be raised for the new track. The northbound track was raised when the platform was switched.
