The three-storey train station is located on a west-east facing viaduct . There are a few shops on the ground floor, the second floor serves as a distribution level . Two tracks on side platforms lead through the third level. Since all trains stop here without exception, there are no overtaking tracks. The station is surrounded on both sides by the buildings of the Shin-Sapporo Arc City shopping center , which is why it is hardly recognizable from the outside.
The underground station , which is oriented in north-south direction, can be reached via two pedestrian passages. It has a central platform around 15 meters wide , the widest in the entire Sapporo subway network. The tracks are separated by half-height platform screen doors.
In the 2014 fiscal year, an average of 14,118 passengers were counted per day, making Teine the third busiest station in JR Hokkaido.

history
During the Second World War there was a farm and an army weapons depot on the site around what is now the train station, while the Chitose Line made a longer detour around it. Two decades later, the city began to develop the area into the sub-center Shin-Sapporo-Fukutoshin with office buildings and shopping centers. Part of this project was a new, more direct route of the Chitose Line between Naebo and Kita-Hiroshima, which was put into operation on September 9, 1973 together with the Shin-Sapporo station. Before that, the neighboring freight depot had this name.
The Sapporo City Transportation Office extended the Tōzai line of the subway from Shiroishi to Shin-Sapporo and opened this section on March 21, 1982, creating a transfer hub in the east of the city. As part of the privatization of the state railways, the railroad section of the facility passed into the possession of JR Hokkaido on April 1, 1987 .
