Because the Hankyu Railway provides Rapid Express (express) trains that connect to Osaka Monorail at Hotarugaike Station for the sake of improved access, the time required to reach the city center has been reduced, and thus it can be said that "JR Fukuchiyama Line Branch Track Plan" has been replaced by this route.
現在は阪急が蛍池駅に快速急行（急行）を停車させ大阪モノレールとの連携を強化し、都心への所要時間を短縮したことにより本構想は代替されたともいえる。
