Station layout

The station, which is underground, consists of an island platform and two sets of tracks.

There are elevators between ground level and the ticket gate level and between the ticket gate level and platform level. There are also escalators between the ticket gate level and platform level. Along with multifunction toilets, these facilities are meant to make the station barrier free.

As part of a plan to install half-height platform screen doors on the entire Yūrakuchō Line, construction on the doors in the station was begun in mid-2010, and they have been in use since 26 March 2011.
