History

Minami-sunamachi Station opened on 29 March 1969.

The station facilities were inherited by Tokyo Metro after the privatization of the Teito Rapid Transit Authority (TRTA) in 2004.^[1]

Current plans

Work is underway to install an additional platform, resulting in track two undergoing a conversion to a Spanish solution platform layout.^[2] The installation of the new tracks serving the new platform is scheduled to take place over three phases, with the first phase scheduled to take place on 11–12 May 2024. At the end of construction, the station will consist of three tracks and two island platforms. The capacity upgrades come at the result of increased ridership in 2022 with the station having ranked 61st out of 130 stations on the Tokyo Metro.^[3]
