Jomon Site/Art Museum from Shin-Aomori? 2011/8/29 18:52
hi,

Is there convenient transpo/bus from Shin-Aomori station to the jomon site/museum of art? I read about bus coming from Aomori station, will it stop by shin-aomori station?

Also do you know where I can find timetable of bus that passes through those sites from either train station?

Thanks!

Until October 10, 2011 there are free shuttle buses from Shin-Aomori Station:

新青森駅 Shin-Aomori Station
美術館 Art Museum
三内丸山遺跡 Jomon Site

But I don't think that there is any direct connection after October 10.

Buses stopping near Sannai-Maruyama 2011/8/29 20:49
I presume you mean Sannai-Maruyama remains of Jomon period and the prefectural Aomori Museum of Art.

Though not free of fare, shuttle buses nicknamed "Nebutan" are available.
The operation of Tohoku Shinkansen by JR-East is supposed to come back to the normal from 23 September 2011.
Also the diagram of the shuttle buses might be revised to take into account new arrival / departure times of Shinkansen trains.

Timetables for "Nebutan" shuttle buses since 23 April 2011:

Please make sure to take a bus running counterclockwise at South Entrance of Shin-Aomori Station (# 35): see the second timetable.
The bus stop # 28 (Kenritsu-bijutsukan-mae) is near the museum of art, and # 27 (Sannai-Maruyama-iseki-mae) is near the Jomon site.
To get back to the station, a bus running clockwise is better: see the first timetable.
(Generally speaking, two bus stops for different directions are not always located close even when their names are the same.)
Fare: 200 yen per ride.
A one-day pass is sold at 500 yen.

For your information:
I am not sure how local people pronounce "Sannai-Maruyama" but in TV and radio news, "Sannai" is pronounced like "Sun-nigh" with an accent on the first syllable.
