奈良交通北大和営業所

The Nara Kotsu Kita Yamato bus depot is an operational facility in Ikoma that manages around 49 routes connecting multiple municipalities including Nara, Ikoma, and Yamatokoriyama. The site coordinates daily operations of standard city buses and express services to handle commuter traffic.

The depot was established in 1978 from the consolidation of earlier bus facilities in Ikoma and western Nara areas. This merger represented a major step in improving public transportation infrastructure across the region.

The depot supports local events by operating special bus services during festivals and peak tourism periods throughout the Nara prefecture.

The facility is located approximately 130 meters from Gakken Kita-Ikoma Station, making it easy to access by foot from the rail network. The hilly terrain of the area requires careful planning of bus stops and schedules to serve the landscape effectively.

The depot maintains specific free boarding zones along its routes, adapting to the hilly terrain of Ikoma with carefully planned bus stops and schedules.
