国立東埼玉病院（バス）

It is a very old (generally more than 50 years ago) historic route and bus stop that has existed since the time when Tobu Bus was under the jurisdiction, and was once the end point of the Lotus 03 bus coming from Hasuda Station. In addition, some buses run only a few times a day from Shiraoka Station and only once a day from Iwatsuki Station, which is so inconvenient that you can't think of it as a bus for daily life in the Tokyo metropolitan area, except for Hasuda Station and Kurohama area. was. When I was a child, I used to take this bus from this bus stop or in front of the Kurohama station, but I thought it was a country bus, for better or for worse. The dramatic change in the bus operation environment in this area was due to the complete withdrawal of Tobu Bus from the north of central Saitama Prefecture and the replacement of Asahi Bus, which is a subsidiary of the same Tobu Group, to review the route. In addition, Omiya Station has been transformed from a local city to a metropolitan area, and the neighboring Hasuda City has also been converted to a bed town, making it more convenient. Buses that used to come from Shiraoka Station are now abolished, but the convenience of the bus bound for Iwatsuki Station, which used to be only one per day on the license maintenance line, has improved dramatically to the extent that one bus runs every hour. Is it the biggest improvement point to be able to connect to the Tobu Urban Park Line (former Tobu Noda Line)? Hasuda City and the former Iwatsuki City are close to each other, but the means of transportation is very poor, so it is natural to move by bus from Hasuda Station or to Omiya Station and transfer on the Tobu Line. However, I sometimes estimated at least 2 hours. In the past, there were many users of the Kurohama area, but in recent years there have been few buses, such as those from the Egasaki area and Iwatsuki-ku area of ​​Omiya city, and those who go to school at Hasuda Matsurin High School. The contents are changing to a hospital transfer / school route bus.
