History

Ōgimachi Station (station number K12) opened on 6 December 1969 with the inauguration of the Osaka Municipal Subway Sakaisuji Line between Tenjinbashisuji 6-chōme and Dōbutsuen-mae. It is located beneath Tenjinbashi-suji 4-chōme in Kita-ku, Osaka, with two underground side platforms and ticket gates at both the north and south ends sharing a single concourse. Ownership passed from the Osaka Municipal Transportation Bureau to Osaka Metro on 1 April 2018, and platform screen doors entered service on 29 January 2023. JR West's Tenma Station on the Osaka Loop Line is about a five-minute walk from the north exit and offers an out-of-station transfer.

Notes

The station's name predates the local Ōgimachi neighbourhood, which was officially created only in 1978; the area had instead been known by names referring to a now-vanished bridge, Ōgi-bashi, that crossed the buried Tenma Horikawa canal nearby.
