Location

History

Daidō-Toyosato Station opened on 24 December 2006 on the Osaka Municipal Subway’s Imazatosuji Line in Higashiyodogawa-ku, Osaka. Earlier that year, on 10 July 2006, the operator settled on the official name “Daidō-Toyosato” — keeping “Daidō” in hiragana to reflect that the two local place names use the kanji 大道 and 大桐 — replacing the provisional working name “Toyosato.” On 1 April 2018 the station passed from Osaka Municipal Transportation Bureau to the corporatised Osaka Metro. It sits beneath National Route 479 on the boundary of the former Daidō and Toyosato villages of Nishinari District, both annexed by Osaka City. The single underground island platform has been protected by platform-edge gates since opening, and the station has just one ticket gate concourse.

Notes

Daidō-Toyosato is one of only three Osaka Metro stations whose official name is partly written in hiragana, alongside Fuminosato and Nakafutō.
