History

Construction began on 18 December 2008 and the station opened on 8 April 2009, making it the newest station on the Ohmi Railway network. It was built by Ohmi Railway alone at a cost of about ¥50 million, aimed at residents of newly developed housing in Serikawa, students commuting to nearby Hikone Sōgō High School, and visitors to the Hanashōbu-dōri shopping street. The station consists of a single 45-metre, 3-metre-wide side platform and is unstaffed. In fiscal 2019 it averaged 116 boarding passengers per day. Station number: OR05.
