In a significant move towards enhancing visitor experience for the upcoming 2027 International Garden Expo, also known as GREEN×EXPO 2027, Times24 Co., Ltd., headquartered in Shinagawa, Tokyo, has officially signed a contract with the 2027 International Garden Expo Association. This agreement focuses on developing and managing a comprehensive parking reservation system, alongside parking fee processing services as part of the Expo operations.

Scheduled to take place from March 2027 over a six-month span, GREEN×EXPO 2027 will be hosted at the former Kamiseya Communication Facility in Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture. The expo aims to spread international horticultural culture, promote vibrant living environments filled with flowers and greenery, generate local and economic opportunities, and tackle various social issues.

As part of the responsibilities outlined in the contract, Times24 will create a parking reservation system that supports the seamless arrival of visitors to the event. The designated parking area is projected to accommodate approximately 5,500 private vehicles, 800 tour buses, and around 1,500 bicycles, along with additional parking spaces for cars outside the venue, with numbers still under consideration.

Having previously implemented management services for parking facilities at the 2025 Japan World Expo (also referred to as Osaka-Kansai Expo), Times24 is well-equipped to develop the necessary infrastructure for GREEN×EXPO 2027. This includes implementing a robust entry and exit reservation and payment system to optimize both traffic flow and visitor access to the site.

The organization’s established expertise in orchestrating parking logistics underscores their commitment to facilitating a positive expo experience, adapting and enhancing operational systems that cater to evolving visitor needs.

Looking ahead, Times24 is dedicated to further developing innovative parking systems and related services tailored to varying requirements in pursuit of creating a stress-free movement environment for all. By leveraging their advanced technologies, they intend to ensure that the participants and attendees of GREEN×EXPO 2027 have a smooth and efficient journey from the moment they arrive until they depart.

In conclusion, the prospect of a well-orchestrated parking solution for GREEN×EXPO 2027 reflects Times24's dedication to excellence in service delivery. It aims to set new standards in logistical planning for large-scale events, ultimately enhancing the overall experience for thousands of visitors expected during the expo.
