Station layout
The station has two side platforms located on the first basement (B1F) level, serving two tracks. The station has ticket gates at the entrances to the platforms.
As there is no underground concourse connecting the two platforms, both platforms have their own pair of exits. Platform 1 is served by exits 1 and 2, while platform 2 is served by exits 3 and 4.[1] Passengers wishing to switch platforms must return to street level and cross Chuo-dori to reach the entrances for the other platform.
