History
Inujima-Shinmachi Station is on the Toyama Chihō Railway Toyama-kō Line in Inujima-Shinmachi 1-chōme, Toyama, with station number C34. It was a new station built for the 29 April 2006 Toyama Light Rail conversion, the proposal first appearing in the Toyama City Construction Committee's 27 November 2003 mid-term report which recommended that new stops including one near Inujima-Shinmachi be added to make the line more accessible. The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport approved the new-station plan on 18 February 2005. The station name was decided by a local-representative committee on 2 December 2005 after no successful naming-rights bid was received, and the station opened with the rest of the Toyama Light Rail Toyama-kō Line on 29 April 2006. It became a Toyama Chihō Railway station on 22 February 2020 when Toyama Light Rail was absorbed.
Notes
When Inujima-Shinmachi and four other new Toyama-kō Line stops opened on 29 April 2006, the line's average inter-station distance fell from 888 m to 546 m — what researcher Yasunori Doi described as making the line "much more accessible to riders".
