Until 8: 00 ~ 9: 15 on Sunday, September 4, 2022, the 112th Kamoi Station North-South Connecting Passage (Fureai Bridge) was cleaned up by sweeping the north-south passageway and the north and south stairs of JR Kamoi Station, picking up trash and cleaning the area around Kamoike Bridge (Midori Ward side).

In response to this cleaning activity,We have received feedback from participants such as:
- It was hard to get up early on Sunday morning, but it ended early so I had a productive Sunday.
- Local children and junior high school students also participated this time, and it was good to see the extent of the activities.
- Even in places that looked beautiful at first glance, there were garbage and cigarette litter hidden in the bushes, so I felt that these steady activities led to the creation of a beautiful city.
- The members of the Kamoi Station Neighborhood Development Study Group talked to me in a friendly manner, and I was able to come into contact with the local people through garbage collection and feel that I have become a member of the community.
We will continue to value our connection to the community and continue to contribute to creating a clean, litter-free city every month.
