In the previous JR station, only one entrance/exit place was provided on the east side, which is on the Senbon-dori Street side, but since the Tozai Line run by Kyoto Municipal Subway started began operating and the railway tracks of the Sanin Main Line (Sagano Line) have been elevated, the area on its western side has been developed, and recently city buses and taxis have become available on the west entrance side.
従来のJR駅は東の千本通側のみの出入り口であったが、地下鉄京都市営地下鉄東西線開通・山陰本線（嵯峨野線）の高架化以降は西側も整備され、近年は西口にも市バス・タクシーが乗り入れている。
