Layout
The station consists of an island platform served by two tracks. By the side of one track, a station building is located with a waiting and ticket window operated by a kan'i itaku contractor. The island platform is reached by crossing one track along a paved walkway and then climbing up some steps. Parking lots, a bike shed and a public telephone call box are located outside the building.[1][5][6]
