Location

History

Port Town-nishi Station opened on 16 March 1981 with the inauguration of the Osaka Municipal Transportation Bureau's Nankō Port Town Line, an automated rubber-tyred "New Tram" system serving the reclaimed harbour districts of southern Osaka. The elevated station has a single island platform with two tracks, full-height platform-screen doors, and a single concourse-level ticket gate on the Cosmosquare side. On 1 April 2018 the municipal operator was corporatised and the station passed to Osaka Metro. It is administered from the South Port traffic office under the neighbouring Port Town-higashi.

Notes

The platform is sealed behind full-height glass walls and full-screen platform doors, leaving the station interior completely walled in.
