History

Ushigome-kagurazaka Station opened on 12 December 2000 as a stop on the newly completed Toei Ōedo Line in the Tansumachi neighbourhood of Shinjuku, Tokyo (station code E-05). The provisional planning name during construction was "Shin-Kagurazaka". PASMO IC service began on 18 March 2007 and operations are outsourced to the Tokyo Metropolitan Transportation Service Cooperative. A single island platform serves two tracks underground; the side walls are clad in dark grey tile and the platform floor and stair-side walls use orange tile to evoke the surrounding Kagurazaka neighbourhood. A crossover at the Ushigome-Yanagicho end allows turnback operation in emergencies. Originally projected to attract about 14,000 boardings per day at opening, daily boardings have settled near 6,650 in fiscal 2024.

Notes

Despite "Kagurazaka" appearing in the name of both Ushigome-Kagurazaka (Ōedo Line, E-05) and Kagurazaka (Tōzai Line, T-05) stations, the two are not officially treated as a transfer pair — they sit on parallel streets about 600 metres apart and have no shared concourse.
