Station structure

The station is above ground, and consists of a single platform alongside the railway track. Trains operate in both directions along the line. The waiting room is constructed in the style of a small log cabin. The station itself is mostly used by students attending the nearby senior high school.

Station environs

As suburbanisation advances, residential area, agricultural land and shops and businesses exist in balance. In front of the station is a site for construction materials, and a large quantity of prefabricated buildings will be constructed.

History

  • November 1, 1986: The station opened as a temporary platform.
  • April 1, 1987: Since the privatisation of the national rail network, the station status was upgraded and ownership was transferred to JR Hokkaidō.
