In the fiscal year 2023, Japan Railways' Hokkaido Shinkansen high-speed trains carried around 1.4 million passengers, increasing from 1.07 million in the preceding year. The Hokkaido Shinkansen was partially opened in 2016, running between Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto-Station and Shin-Aomori and bridging Japan's main islands, Hokkaido and Honshu, via the undersea Seikan Tunnel. Operated by Hokkaido Railway Company (JR Hokkaido), the completion of the remaining section leading north to Sapporo is due by March 2031.
