Chiyorichō Station opened on 21 April 1957 as Chiyorichō-shako-mae (知寄町車庫前), serving the brand-new Chiyorichō car works to the north and bus depot to the south — both of which had taken over from the old Shimoji car works that sat near Hōeichō Station. The Chiyorichō car works became the heart of Tosa Electric Railway, also hosting the head office and (from August 1962) the Shinonome-chō car-build works. All of these moved to the Sanbashi district on 1 December 1987, and the stop was renamed simply Chiyorichō the same day. The Gomenmachi-bound platform was nudged 20 m east on 11 March 1996, and station-master service was withdrawn in September 2002 to leave the stop unstaffed. It passed to Tosaden Kōtsū on 1 October 2014 with the operator merger.

Until the December 1987 move to Sanbashi, the Chiyorichō car works, Shinonome-chō rolling-stock plant, head office and bus depot all crowded around this stop — for thirty years it was the operational nerve centre of the entire Tosa Electric Railway, not just a passenger stop.
