These days, we’ve come so accustomed with delays and pushed-back deadlines that the surprise is in hearing one company is actually able to stick to the timeline announced before the international health crisis. Toyota is one such example and, this week, it officially broke ground for Woven City.
An official groundbreaking ceremony took place at the Higashi-Fuji site in Susono City, Shizuoka Prefecture, and it saw the who’s who of the project come out, including Toyota President Akio Toyoda. Big words were said, as the occasion demands, but the takeaway here is that Toyota is fully committed to building this city of the future.
