Location

History

Sugano Station opened on 9 February 1916 on the Keisei Main Line in Ichikawa, Chiba, originally laid out as two opposed side platforms with the station building on the up-line side. In 1971 the layout was reorganised into a single island, the platforms were lengthened, and a bridge-style concourse opened. The platforms were extended again in 1997 to handle eight-car formations. Keisei rolled out station numbering across its network on 17 July 2010, with Sugano assigned KS15. A multi-year barrier-free programme between 15 August 2021 and 31 March 2022 moved the staircase to mid-platform, opened new north and south exits, and added elevators, multi-purpose toilets, and station-square access from both sides.

Notes

The area around Sugano Station is associated with the novelists Rohan Kōda and Kafū Nagai, and the north side of the station has become a private-school enclave: seven private high schools, five private middle schools, and three private elementary schools stand there, including Kōnodai Joshi Gakuin and Hinode Gakuen.
