History

Inujima-Shinmachi Station is on the Toyama Chihō Railway Toyama-kō Line in Inujima-Shinmachi 1-chōme, Toyama, with station number C34. It was a new station built for the 29 April 2006 Toyama Light Rail conversion; the proposal first appeared in the interim report of the Toyama-kō Line tramway-conversion study committee, presented to the Toyama City Assembly's construction committee on 27 November 2003, which recommended that new stations including one near Inujima-Shinmachi be built to improve passenger convenience. The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport approved the new-station plan on 18 February 2005. The station name was decided by a committee of local representatives on 2 December 2005 after no naming-rights bid was received, and the station opened with the rest of the Toyama Light Rail Toyama-kō Line on 29 April 2006. It became a Toyama Chihō Railway station on 22 February 2020 when Toyama Light Rail was absorbed.

Notes

The opening of Inujima-Shinmachi and the other new Toyama-kō Line stops on 29 April 2006 cut the line's average distance between stations from 888 m to 546 m, which Yasunori Doi rated as a measure that made it easier for passengers to reach stations.
