Nagoyakō Line be converted to a passenger line, but due to minimal congestion at the time on the Tōkaidō, the proposal was dismissed. Ultimately, the West Nagoyakō Line opened for passenger service in 2004 as the Aonami Line. During renovations, the point at which the Nanpō Freight Line diverged was demolished as it interfered with the work. Since 2002, about 30 billion yen has been spent removing portions of the structure. Although the land has been put up for sale, only about 4 billion has been recovered due to low land prices. Some of the line's upright supports and surface still stand on the grounds of the Chubu Steel Plate Company. From the Aonami Line, one can see that this section is used as an elevated parking lot. As of 2008, sections of the track which do not have offices or parking lots below are being removed. Sections of bridge near Ōdaka Station which are part of the same structure that supports the Tōkaidō Main Line are being reinforced to resist earthquakes. This work is being carried out by the Japan Railway Construction, Transport and Technology Agency. Tōkaidō Main Line Rail transport in Nagoya
