Chūō-kuyakusho-mae Stop (SC03) is on the Sapporo Streetcar Ichijō Line at the Minami-1-jō-dōri/Ishiyama-dōri (National Route 230) intersection in Chūō-ku, Sapporo. It opened with the rest of the line on 12 August 1918 as Nishi 11-chōme, was renamed Kōtsū-kyoku-mae ("Transport Bureau front") on 8 July 1949 because the city tram office was located here, reverted to Nishi 11-chōme on 1 July 1958 after the bureau moved out, was renamed Shōbō-kyoku-mae ("Fire Bureau front") on 1 June 1962, and took its present name on 1 April 1972 when Sapporo became a designated city and Chūō-ku Ward Office opened nearby. A single-track siding once ran from this stop to the Chūō car barn until that barn was abolished in 1968 on the construction of the electric-car centre (Densha Sharyō Sentā).

Until 1958 this was the nearest stop to the Sapporo tram system's Transport Bureau headquarters and its Chūō car barn, and a single-track spur led from the stop directly into the depot; crew changes were also done at the stop. The Chūō barn was abolished in 1968 when the electric-car centre (Densha Sharyō Sentā) was built.
