Kurume City has released a redevelopment proposal for the area surrounding Nishitetsu Kurume Station, the city’s largest shopping district, which has seen little change in four decades. The draft includes four key principles: comfort, safety for pedestrians and cyclists, climate resilience, and overall urban renewal. The plan emphasizes disaster-resistant urban design and aims to create inviting public spaces. Kurume plans to finalize the proposal this fall after public consultations and city council feedback.
