Neishi station platform

In order to get to the platform from the train station, commuters would have to cross the railway track and the station is staffless. The train station sees only 4 trains calling here and many more trains passing by. In conjunction with the electrification works on the South-link Line, a side platform was being constructed which allows commuters to get the platform without crossing the railway track. An elementary school is adjacent to the station with an overhead footbridge connecting the school across the track. Although the bridge passes over the station, there is no direct access from the platform. The entrance to the station is off of Provincial Highway 1, which does not have any pedestrian accommodations.

History

The station was opened on 5 October 1992.
