Government/labor strategic thinking at its best.
That will be tough building a railway to the new Hiroshima Airport. It needs a cog railway may be. I landed there thinking it'll be 15 minutes to JR Hiroshima. The taxi driver asked me three times if I really wanted to go there. Then a Saijo road sign went by. I thought I was on the wrong island and the taxi was headed to a bridge. Fortunately it was another Saijo and only a 40 minutes or so taxi ride.
