The population in Tokyo's waterfront areas has ballooned in recent years and is only expected to keep climbing after the 2020 Olympics, ratcheting up pressure on the local government to expand its already crowded public transit system.

I take a train line that runs parallel to the waterfront, every day. It gets really crowded in the mornings. Some companies start at 10:00 instead of usual 9:00, to save workers from getting pressed in the train.
