Hazawa yokohama-kokudai Station (羽沢横浜国大駅, Hazawa-Yokohama-Kokudai-eki) is a railway station on the Sōtetsu Shin-Yokohama Line and Tōkaidō Freight Line.[1] It is located in Kanagawa-ku, Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture. This station is jointly operated by Sōtetsu (Sagami Railway), with station number SO51, and JR East.
History[]
- 11 December 2017: Sōtetsu finalised the station name as Hazawa yokohama-kokudai Station.[2] However, as of that time the route name was still provisional. The station's name comes from its locale, Hazawa (羽沢), and also its neighbouring university, the Yokohama National University, or in Japanese, Yokohama Kokudai (横浜国大).
- 30 November 2019: Opening of the Sōtetsu JR Link Line.[2]
- Late 2022: Scheduled opening of the Sōtetsu Tōkyū Link Line towards Shin-Yokohama.[2]
Station building under construction in April 2018
Station layout[]
The station consists of two underground side platforms. At the east side of the station, the tracks for the JR Link Line and the Tōkyū Link Line diverge, with the JR Link Line converging with the Tōkaidō Freight Line after leaving the junction.[3]
