Location
History
Nishiōji Oike Station opened on 16 January 2008 when the Kyoto Municipal Subway Tōzai Line was extended westward from Nijō to Uzumasa Tenjingawa, in Nakagyō Ward, Kyōto. The station was provisionally called Nishiōji during planning, but the final name was taken from the Nishiōji Oike intersection directly above; in a February 2007 public name survey, the shorter Nishiōji had attracted 41 percent of responses while Nishiōji Oike drew 16 percent. The underground station has an island platform serving two tracks, with platform screen doors and a single ticket-gate concourse. The line's station-colour scheme assigns sunflower yellow to Nishiōji Oike.
Notes
Some of the street-level entrances are built as glass-walled see-through structures.
