The tracks on the northern side of the station are laid between National Route 24 and a hilly area where many houses have been built, creating a situation that makes it difficult to find the means to come up with sufficient land when advancing the Nara Line Double Track Project.
また、駅の北側の線路は国道24号線と住宅が立ち並ぶ丘陵地に挟まれており、奈良線の複線化計画を進行させる際に複線化用地を捻出するのが困難な状態となっている。
