Lines
'Kōyōdai Station is served by the JR Shikoku Yosan Line and is located 182.3 km from the beginning of the line at Takamatsu.[3] Only Yosan Line local trains stop at the station and they only serve the sector between Iyo-Saijō and Matsuyama. Connections with other local or limited express trains are needed to travel further east or west along the line.[4]
Layout
The station, which is unstaffed, consists of a side platform serving a single track. There is no station building, only a shelter for waiting passengers and a "tickets corner", a small shelter containing an automatic ticket vending machine. A ramp leads from the access road to the platform. A designated space for the parking of bicycles is provided behind the platform.[2][5][6][3]

History
Japanese National Railways (JNR) opened 'Kōyōdai Station as a new stop on the existing Yosan Line on 1 November 1986 as Koyoda Temporary Stop (臨時乗こうようだ降場, Rinji-jō Kōyōda fu ba). With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, JR Shikoku assumed control and renamed it Kōyōdai Station.[7][8]
