Yokohama Municipal Subway (横浜市営地下鉄, Yokohama-shiei chikatetsu) is the rapid transit network in the city of Yokohama, Japan, south of Tokyo in Kanagawa pref. It is operated by Yokohama City Transportation Bureau as two lines, though three continuous lines exist.
The Yokohama Municipal Subway consists of three lines: Line 1, Line 3 and 4. Line 1 and 3 are operated as a single line, nicknamed the Blue Line. Line 4 is nicknamed the Green Line. Upon the addition to the network of this line on March 30, 2008, the Blue Line and Green Line monikers came into official use.
Transfer between the Blue and Green Line is possible at Center-Kita and Center-Minami Stations. Feeder bus services from western Kawasaki City area run to Azamino Station.
The "missing" Line 2 was planned to run from Kanagawa-Shinmachi Station via Yokohama Station to Byobugaura Station. The 11.4 km (7.1 mi) line was previously considered as a bypass line for easing congestion on the Keikyū Main Line, however, the line deemed unnecessary after the Keikyu Line increased its capacity.
The Blue Line (Lines 1/3) is operated as an integrated route of 40.4 kilometres (25.1 mi) between Shōnandai Station and Azamino Station. The Blue Line is Japan's second-longest subway line, after the 40.7 km (25.3 mi) Toei Ōedo Line in Tokyo.
In July 2011, a "mobile phone power off area" was set up in each car, and the use of mobile phones is officially banned except in other areas.
The Green Line (Line 4) opened on March 30, 2008, between Hiyoshi Station and Nakayama Station, operating distance 13.0 km (total extension distance 13.1 km).
An extension of the Blue Line (Line 3) is being studied from Azamino Station to Odakyū Odawara Line's Shin-Yurigaoka Station in Kawasaki City.

Yokohama has 3.4 million inhabitants (the second largest city in Japan) and is located on the southwest coast of Tokyo Bay, just 30 km from the center of Tokyo. Yokohama has two real subway lines, which are complemented by several local railways that also provide high-frequency rail connections within the city (especially the Sotetsu and Keikyu lines).
40.4 km (7.6 km above ground), 32 stations
Construction of the metro began in 1968 on today's Blue Line, which was originally planned as two separate lines (lines 1 and 3) intersecting at Kannai. It currently operates as one continuous line from Azamino in the north to Sonandai in the south.
