The station is served by JR Shikoku's Dosan Line and is located 141.6 km from the beginning of the line at Tadotsu.[3][4]
Layout
The station consists of a side platform serving a single track. There is no station building, only a weather shelter on the platform for waiting passengers. A ramp from the access road leads up to the platform. A bike shed and parking lots are provided at the base of the ramp.[2]
The station was opened by JR Shikoku on 15 March 2008 as a new station on the existing Dosan Line.[3] As JR Shikoku had introduced station numbering in 2006[citation needed] and numbers "K08" and "K09" had already been assigned to Hakawa and Kusaka respectively, the new station, which was between the two, was given the number "K08-1".
