Location
History
Satsukidai Station opened on 1 June 1974 as a Tama Line stop on the Odakyu Electric Railway, perched at the top of a hill in the Gorikida district of Asao-ku, Kawasaki. It was made a Section Semi-Express stop in December 2004 and the building was refurbished in March 2006 with new elevators. Solar-panel canopies were installed over the platform shelters in January 2006 to power the ticket gates and vending. Section Semi-Expresses were withdrawn in March 2018, leaving only locals, until the March 2025 timetable made Satsukidai an express stop and began through-running services with the Tokyo Metro Chiyoda Line. The station was assigned the number OT01.
Notes
The name "Satsukidai" was coined: the place-name Gorikida was deemed unromantic, so planners blended the "go" character from Gorikida with the "dai" of the now-obsolete neighbourhood Ōdai and dressed it up with imagery of bright May ("satsuki"). The surrounding land has not adopted the new name.
