History

Kita-Ayase Station opened on 20 December 1979.[3]

The station facilities were inherited by Tokyo Metro after the privatization of the Teito Rapid Transit Authority (TRTA) in 2004.[4]

The station underwent rebuilding work to extend the platforms approximately 135 m (443 ft) toward Ayase Station to allow ten-car through trains to operate to and from the main Chiyoda Line.[5] New station entrances were also added.[5] 10 car service began on March 16, 2019.[1]

Passenger statistics

In fiscal 2011, the station was used by an average of 25,225 passengers daily.[3]
