History

The station opened on 3 March 1986. The station was absorbed into the JR East network upon the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987.

Station numbering was introduced to the JR East platforms in 2016 with Inagekaigan being assigned station number JE15.[2][3] With the opening of Makuharitoyosuna in 2023, stations further down on the Keiyo Line were each shifted down one station number. As such, Inagekaigan was reassigned station number JE16.

Passenger statistics

In fiscal 2019, the station was used by an average of 21,716 passengers daily[4]
