Station layout

Matsugaya Station is a raised station with two tracks and two opposed side platforms, with the station building located underneath. It is a standardized station building for this monorail line.Each platform is equipped with one elevator and one escalator which connect the platform level and the concourse level; the concourse is connected via a pedestrian deck to ground level (which, unusually for a raised station, is level with the concourse). The station is generally unattended and is monitored remotely via surveillance cameras.

History

The station opened on January 10, 2000.

Surrounding area

The station serves the Kashima and Matsugaya areas of Tama New Town, running above Tokyo Metropolitan Route 156. There are few shops or municipal facilities nearby, only homes and apartment buildings; the station surroundings are therefore very quiet. Two parks and several schools are also nearby.
