The station is served by the Tokushima Line and is 64.5 km from the beginning of the line at Tsukuda. Only trains from the local service stop at the station.[3]

Layout[]

The station, which is unstaffed, consists of a side platform serving a single track on an embankment. There is no station building, only a shelter on the platform for waiting passengers. A flight of steps leads up the embankment to the platform from the access road. At the base of the steps is a "tickets corner" (a shelter housing a ticket vending machine), a public telephone call box and a paved area for the parking of bicycles.[2][4][5]

History[]

The station was opened on 20 September 1934 by Japanese Government Railways (JGR) on the then Tokushima Main Line. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR Shikoku. On 1 June 1988, the line was renamed the Tokushima Line.[6][7]
