History

Kōzōji Station, in Kasugai, Aichi Prefecture, opened on 25 July 1900 with the Nagoya–Tajimi section of the government railway and now serves as a junction between JR Central's Chūō Main Line and the Aichi Loop Railway. Operation passed to JR Central at the 1987 privatisation, and on 31 January 1988 the Aichi Loop Railway line opened as far as Kōzōji and began serving the station; the connections for through running with the Chūō Main Line were completed in October 2004. The elevated station has three island platforms with the concourse beneath; the Tōkai heavy rains of 11–12 September 2000 submerged the station and put its facilities out of use. In fiscal 2017 the JR side averaged 20,256 boarding passengers daily and the Aichi Loop Railway side 10,872, making it Kasugai's busiest station.
