Nishi-Ōzu Station opened on 20 October 1961 as an added stop on the existing Yosan Line in what is now the city of Ōzu, Ehime Prefecture. The station was the result of local petitioning — Ōzu city councillors and PTA leaders had formed a station construction committee in 1960 and pursued the project through letters and on-site lobbying trips to Matsuyama and Takamatsu. From its opening as an unstaffed local-only halt, daily usage was about 70–80 passengers, falling to roughly 20 by around 1980. Control passed to JR Shikoku at the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987, and the station carries the number U15. A single side platform serves one track; there is no station building, only a waiting shelter, and the entrance to the platform is at its Uwajima end.
