History

Shōkō-Kaigisho-mae Station (F19) is a Fukui Railway Fukubu Line tram stop in Nishikida, Fukui City, on prefectural road 28 (Phoenix-dōri). The rail/tram boundary of the Fukubu Line lies immediately south of the stop: the section on towards Takefu-shin is the railway-classification part, while this stop is the southernmost on the tramway-classification side. It opened on 15 October 1933 as Kida-Yotsutsuji Station when the Fukubu Electric Railway extended its line from Fukui-shin (today Sekijūji-mae) to Fukui-eki-mae (today Fukui-eki Stop). The stop was moved to its current position on 1 February 2016 and renamed Shōkō-Kaigisho-mae on 27 March 2016, the same day it was promoted to an Express stop.

Notes

The station name comes from the Fukui Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Shōkō-Kaigisho), which stands near the stop. The rename to Shōkō-Kaigisho-mae took effect on 27 March 2016, the same day the stop was promoted to an Express stop.
