Relationship with the Tokyo MonorailFrom the press release
From the press release
Access to Terminal 3 and other areas is planned to be enhanced through coordination between the Haneda Airport Access Line(tentative name) and the Tokyo Monorail.
Furthermore, the Tokyo Monorail is expected to remain an important transportation service rooted in the local community, supported not only by airport access demand but also by commuter demand along the Line, as well as anticipated increases in ridership associated with redevelopment around Hamamatsucho Station and growing usage in the Haneda Airport area.
