Providing an important service for local communities, buses are indispensable to people who don’t own cars. In recent years, rather than take a train or plane, more and more people – especially young people – are using long distance buses which allow them to economically reach their destination. Long distance buses have toilets. There are also deluxe buses with a private room, bed, or dressing room. Buses travelling direct to cities all over Japan depart from “Busta Shinjuku” (Shinjuku Expressway Bus Terminal). In a single day one thousand several hundred buses depart and arrive, and some twenty thousand people use them.
