Location
History
Tōdaimae Station opened on 26 March 1996 on the Teito Rapid Transit Authority's Namboku Line at Mukōgaoka 1-chōme in Bunkyō, Tokyo, and is the nearest station to the University of Tokyo's Yayoi campus. Construction was a large open-cut effort 274 metres long, up to 17 metres wide and as deep as 29 metres. Routine operations were outsourced in April 2002, and the station passed to Tokyo Metro on 1 April 2004 when the TRTA was privatised. PASMO acceptance began on 18 March 2007. The island platform is fitted with full-height screen doors; in March 2015 the generic Namboku Line departure jingle was replaced with two original Hiroshi Shiotsuka pieces ("Hanasaku Manabiya" and "Ichō no Namikimichi"), and an additional lift near exit 2 entered service in September 2017.
Notes
Exit 1 emerges directly inside the University of Tokyo's Yayoi (Faculty of Agriculture) campus, and the elevator shaft sits on land Bunkyō ward provided free of charge from its Sixth Junior High School site.
