振替輸送

• 読み: ふりかえゆそう
• ローマ字: furikae yusō
• 漢字の分解: 振替 (transfer/switch) + 輸 (transport) + 送 (send) → transfer transport, alternative routing
• 発音: /ɸu.ri.ka.e.ju.soː/

意味

Alternative transport routing — using other train lines for free when your usual line is disrupted.

When a train line is suspended due to an accident or incident, 振替輸送 allows passengers to use alternative railway company lines at no extra cost. Station staff announce which lines are accepting 振替輸送, and passengers can show their commuter pass or ticket to ride the alternative route. Navigating 振替輸送 is a skill that Tokyo commuters develop over time — knowing which lines to take when your usual route goes down.

例文

1. 振替輸送で地下鉄使ったけど遠回りだった。
2. 振替輸送の案内がわかりにくすぎる。
3. 人身事故で止まったから振替輸送で行くわ。
