History
Hibino Station opened on 29 March 1971 in Atsuta-ku, Nagoya, as a station on the Nagoya Municipal Subway Line 2, then known as the Meijō Line. It was fully refurbished for the 1989 World Design Exposition held in Nagoya. On 6 October 2004, when the Line 4 section between Nagoya University and Aratamabashi opened, the accompanying revision of line names made Hibino a station on the Meikō Line. Exit 5 was brought into use on 1 April 2007, with an elevator entering service at around the same time, and movable platform-edge doors entered service on 29 June 2020. Day-to-day station business has been contracted out to Nippon Express since 27 March 2011.
Notes
Because the station sits where two single-track shield tunnels from Kanayama merge, the island platform widens markedly toward the Kanayama end as the still-converging tracks draw closer together.
