No publicly available departure data for this station.

Nichūdōri Station is a Kagoshima City Tram Tanyama Line tram stop in Kōrai-machi, Kagoshima, served by Route 1. The stop was opened on 9 June 1929 by the Kagoshima City Electric Bureau as Nichūdōri Station; on 1 September 1949 it was renamed Kōtsūbu-mae, and on 1 October 1952 it became Kōtsū-kyoku-mae when the city's Transportation Section was reorganised as the Transportation Bureau. Because the bureau headquarters and adjacent Kagoshima Municipal Hospital were relocated to Kami-arata-chō on 1 May 2015, the stop was renamed Nichūdōri Station once again that day; on the same day the new closest stop to the bureau, Kanda, was renamed Kanda (Kōtsū-kyoku-mae). From 1 January 2023, naming-rights partner Nankoku Shokusan added the sub-name "Nichūdōri (Kirameki Terrace-mae)". The stop has two side platforms with approach indicators and announcements, and is unstaffed.

The "Nichū" ("Second Middle") in the name refers to the institution today known as Kagoshima Prefectural Kōnan High School. The stop carried the name "Kōtsū-kyoku-mae" ("Transportation Bureau front") for 63 years until the bureau moved to Kami-arata-chō in 2015; passengers boarding a "Kōtsū-kyoku-mae bound" tram before then alighted here as a terminal, even when heading further south, and had to pay separately to board the next service in either direction.
