Nishi-Omiya

Departure data for this station is not available on this site.

Nishi-Ōmiya Station opened on 14 March 2009 on the Kawagoe Line between Nisshin and Sashiōgi, 6.3 km from Ōmiya, and is the only station newly built on the line since it opened. Local petitions for a new stop began in the late 1960s, prompted in part by Saitama Sakae High School students walking 1.5 km from Sashiōgi to class. The Housing and Urban Development Corporation began the Ōmiya-seibu land-readjustment project in fiscal 1998, and after Saitama's 2003 designation as an ordinance-designated city the location was set 2.6 km west of Nisshin. The name "Nishi-Ōmiya" was decided on 7 February 2008, and the surrounding district was officially renamed Nishi-Ōmiya on 18 November 2017.

Although Nishi-Ōmiya stands on a single-track section of the Kawagoe Line, its simple layout — two side platforms with separate up and down main tracks — allows trains to cross here.
