The construction of this station has been planned for more than ten years, but nothing has been done because the work to improve the Nakayama-Inari Line of Kyoto Prefectural Route 201, which is to run under the planned site of the new station, was delayed and no prospect of acquiring the necessary land space could be seen.
10年以上前から予定されていたが、駅予定地の真下を通る京都府道201号中山稲荷線の改良工事の遅れや用地買収の目処がたたず、手付かずの状態だった。
