Shibahara-Handai-Mae

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

Shibahara-handai-mae Station opened on 30 September 1994 as Shibahara Station, serving as the western terminus of the Osaka Monorail Main Line during a 7.9 km extension from Senri-Chūō. The terminus role was temporary: difficulties acquiring land near Hotarugaike delayed the extension to Itami Airport until 1 April 1997, after which Shibahara became a through station. On 1 October 2019 the name was changed to Shibahara-handai-mae to flag its proximity to Osaka University's Toyonaka campus ("Handai" being a popular short form of Ōsaka Daigaku), and platform screen doors entered service on 28 August 2021.

The unused crossover west of the platform is a leftover from the period when Shibahara was the temporary western terminus of the Osaka Monorail Main Line, between its opening on 30 September 1994 and the extension to Osaka Airport on 1 April 1997.
