Location
History
Chayama Station opened on 3 February 2005 as an intermediate stop on the Fukuoka City Subway Nanakuma Line in Jōnan-ku, Fukuoka. The single-island-platform underground station sits directly beneath Jōnan Gakuen-dōri and was built as a mid-line district station with more office space than other stops on the line, housing a stationmaster's office, crew rest area and break room. Implementation design was completed between July 1999 and March 2000, with construction running from March 2003 to July 2004. The station has been outsourced to Nippon Express's Fukuoka branch from opening; management transferred from Tenjin-Minami to Hashimoto in April 2019.
Notes
The station symbol — a green tea shoot referencing the area's former tea fields — was sketched by designer Isao Nishijima before his 2001 death and completed posthumously by his son Masayuki.
