History
The station opened on 8 November 1922.[1] With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR) on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR Hokkaido.[1]
In July 2016, JR Hokkaido informed the local government of its intention to close the station from the start of the revised timetable in March 2017 due to low patronage.[2] However, in April 2017, it was announced that JR Hokkaido would continue to maintain the station for the time being.[3]
Passenger statistics
During the period between fiscal 2011 and 2015, the station was used on average by less than one passenger daily.
