The station, which is unstaffed, consists of two side platforms serving two tracks. A building adjacent to one platform serves as a waiting room. A footbridge connects to the other platform.[2]
History
The station opened on 28 November 1935 when the then Kōchi Line was extended northwards from Toyonaga to Minawa and the line was renamed the Dosan Line. At this time the station was operated by Japanese Government Railways, later becoming Japanese National Railways (JNR). With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Shikoku.[3][5]
