Tate-machi

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

Tate-machi was added to the Main Line on 10 June 1952 — four decades after the line itself opened — and was originally named Kougai-Bus-mae after the Hiroden-run suburban bus terminal that adjoined the stop and consolidated the operator's growing suburban routes from 1949 onward. When the larger Hiroshima Bus Center opened next to Kamiya-cho on 29 July 1957, the suburban services migrated there and on the same day the stop was renamed Tate-machi. Station number M8 was assigned in October 1996, Route 9 began serving the stop on 15 February 2013 when it was extended beyond Hatchobori to Eba, and the number was changed to M06 on 3 August 2025.

Tate-machi handled an average of 7,579 boarding and alighting passengers per day in fiscal 1999; the corresponding figure for fiscal 2019 was 5,778.
