Kamiiida Station

Kamiiida Station is a railway station in Kita-ku, Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture, Japan. It was opened on February 11, 1931.

History

The station opened as the terminus of the Meitetsu Komaki Line in 1931. A line of the Nagoya City Tram connected the station to the Ōzone Station from 1944 to 1971. The closure of the Nagoya City Tram line caused inconvenience for the commuters using the station. The connection of the station with the Nagoya Municipal Subway network was planned in 1972. In 1992, the proposed line was raised again as "a line that urgently needs to be built". The entire station was moved underground in 2003 as a result of the opening of the Kamiiida Line.

The station is located underground. Ticket gates with automated turnstiles are located on the basement first floor, while an island platform is located on the basement second floor. The floors and the surface are connected with elevators and escalators.
