Tomo-chūō Station is on the Astram Line (Hiroshima New Transit Line 1) of Hiroshima Rapid Transit, in Asaminami-ku, Hiroshima. The station opened on 20 August 1994 with the rest of the Astram Line; it ceased to be served by every train when an express pattern was introduced on 20 March 1999, regained full stops when the express was abolished on 20 March 2004, and accepted PASPY from 8 August 2009. Asaminami-ku is one of Hiroshima's eight wards, established at the city's elevation to designated-city status in 1980 from the four former towns of Numata, Gion, Yasufuruichi, and Satō (each merged into Hiroshima between 1971 and 1973). The ward is described as a bedroom community of suburban Hiroshima, with large-scale residential development across its hills and mountain districts from the early 1970s through the early 1980s. Part of the planned new town of Seifū Shintoshi falls within its boundaries.

The stop has the lowest ridership of any station on the Astram Line.
