history
The railway company Keiō Denki Kidō (today's Keiō Dentetsu ) opened on April 15, 1913 the first section of the Keiō line , which reached from Sasazuka to Chōfu . The station was at ground level and at that time had a small depot . Sasazuka was the eastern terminus for almost half a year, until the tram-like route was extended by a few hundred meters to the Hatashiro stop, which no longer exists today. From 1915 the Keiō line led to Shinjuku . After half a century, the double-track system, which had meanwhile been expanded to meet railway standards, had reached its capacity limit. To relieve the easternmost section of the Keiō Line, a tunnel section between Sasazuka and Shinjuku with largely parallel routes was built in the 1970s. The station was converted into an elevated system with four tracks, which went into operation on July 21, 1978. The opening of the New Keiō Line took place three months later on October 31. In 2010, the platforms were lengthened and since then they can accommodate trains with ten cars instead of the previous eight.
