Location
History
Ayase Station opened on 1 April 1943 as a Japanese Government Railways stop on the Jōban Line in Adachi, Tokyo. The station moved roughly 250 m toward Kameari in February 1968. On 20 April 1971 the new Chiyoda Line subway absorbed the Jōban Line's local service between Kita-Senju and Ayase, and the Teito Rapid Transit Authority took over day-to-day operation; the short Kita-Ayase branch line followed on 20 December 1979. The segment between Ayase and Kita-Senju belongs to the Chiyoda Line, but it is treated as part of the Jōban Line for fare calculation when passengers do not travel on Tokyo Metro beyond Kita-Senju. TRTA was privatised as Tokyo Metro on 1 April 2004. Platform-edge doors had been in use on platform 0 since 2002 and entered service on platforms 1 to 4 on 7 March 2020.
Notes
Ayase is the only station on the Tokyo Metro network with a "Platform 0" — a stub bay reserved for three-car Kita-Ayase shuttle trains, cut into the side of the through platforms.
