Purpose: In this study, we will analyze the recent trends in the integrated maintenance of the use of artificial lands on the railways, as well as the types and characteristics of the use of artificial lands, focusing on the recent cases of the integrated maintenance project using artificial lands on therailway in Japan, which has recently reappeared. Method: In order to investigate the types and characteristics of integrated maintenance using artificial land on the upper part of the railway, theoretical considerations such as the concept of artificial land and theoretical and legal reviews of integrated development were conducted, and based on this, the overall flow and general characteristics were examined from the 1970s, when the development project using the artificial land on the top of the railway began in earnest, to the present.The analysis was conducted on the Minamiguchi maintenance project at Shinjuku Station, the Daiya Gate in Seibu Ikebukuro Line, and the Ochanomizu Station maintenance project that were completed since the 2000s. Result: Integrated maintenance with the railway is mainly carried out through the artificial land, and it is also used as a method of maximizing the efficiency of the upper part of the artificial land by integrating the railway with the artificial land and the building. In addition, most of the use of the upper part of the artificial land was used as a barrier free public space for the convenience of users or pedestrians, such as a parking lot, a pedestrian space, and a connecting passages.
