It looks like the names of several Hankyu Bus stops will be changing slightly from April 1.
(This info was provided by Kagayaki 509@Nishitsu SP, and Nozomi 64)
Here it is ↓
Quoted from Hankyu Bus
- Nishinomiya Kitaguchi→Hankyu Nishinomiya Kitaguchi Station
- JR Nishinomiya→JR Nishinomiya Station
- JR Nishinomiya Station North→Nakadono Kita Park (JR Nishinomiya Station North)
- In front of Nishinomiya City Hall (Hanshin Nishinomiya Station East Exit)→Nishinomiya City Hall (Hanshin Nishinomiya Station East Exit)
- City Hall East→Nishinomiya City Hall East
- Kotoen→Hankyu Kotoen Station
- Hankyu Shukugawa→Hankyu Shukugawa Station
- JR Sakura Shukugawa→JR Sakura Shukugawa Station
- JR Koshienguchi→JR Koshienguchi Station
- Hanshin Koroen→Hanshin Koroen Station
For bus stops located at stations, “Station” has been added to the name, and “Hankyu” has also been added in some cases. Also, “Nishinomiya” has been added to City Hall.
It looks like the number of bus services will change
We couldn’t quite tell whether they’ll increase or decrease.
The timetables on the official website will change from 4/1 onward.
Lastly
Most of the changes are minor, like Hankyu Shukugawa becoming Hankyu Shukugawa Station. But you might notice them more than expected when you hear the bus announcements, so enjoy that little “wait, something sounds slightly different” feeling.
