Park24 Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; President: Koichi Nishikawa) announces the scheduled opening of Times Parking and Times Car Station locations in April 2026, which will enable 'Park & Ride' and 'Rail & Car Share'—mobility methods that lead to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.
Under its group philosophy, 'To realize comfort that meets the needs of the times and anticipates the future,' the Park24 Group is committed to solving various societal issues through its business activities. In the parking and car-sharing services we provide to create a stress-free mobility environment, we are promoting the development of systems and services to reduce the greenhouse gases emitted by vehicles.
In our parking services, we are developing parking lots that facilitate 'Park & Ride,' where users drive from home to the nearest station, park their car, and then travel to their destination via public transportation such as trains.
In our car-sharing services, we are actively opening stations that enable 'Rail & Car Share,' where users travel to the nearest station to their destination by public transport and then use a car-sharing vehicle from a nearby station.
Both methods are expected to contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions by decreasing the distance driven by car through the combined use of vehicles and public transportation.
In April, there are 32 parking lots suitable for 'Park & Ride' and 166 stations suitable for 'Rail & Car Share' scheduled to open.
We will announce the scheduled openings of parking lots and car-sharing stations on the 5th business day of each month.
The Park24 Group will continue to create services that pursue 'comfort' to make society richer and more attractive, while also working towards the realization of a sustainable society.
