Tokyo station is contaminated as mandatory evacuating zone in Fukushima2
The picture above is one of the 6 measurements.
The results are like this below
1m height from the ground : 6.5~4.8 microSv/h
1.8m height from the ground : 3.0~4.2 microSv/h

6.5 microSv/h is converted to 57 mSv/y.
It’s higher than 50 mSv/y in mandatory evacuating zone in Fukushima.
The reason of this high level of contamination is assumed to be because hot particles are brought from Fukushima or North Japan by the shoes of passengers.
