Tips to Use Buses• Ask the bus driver to inform you when the bus arrives at KURRI or your destination. Japanese sentences

included in the last page of this pdf may help you since bus drivers generally don’t speak English.

• Many KURRI staff members (researchers, students etc.) also use the same buses to commute. They are sure to help you.

• The ticket may not be issued at the starting bus stop as the highest fare is always applied to the passengers from the starting bus stop.

• Prepare small changes prior to getting on the bus. There is a money changer near the driver, but it accepts only1000 yen bill, not larger bills (5000 yen, 10000 yen).

• IC cards accepted at local buses are: ICOCA, PiTaPa, Suica, PASMO, Kitaca, icsca, mamaca, TOICA, nimoca, SUGOCA, はやかけん, なっち

• You can’t top-up your IC card in local buses. Use the ticket machines at train stations of JR and Nankai railways.
