Kodemmachō Station (小伝馬町駅, Kodenmachō-eki) is a subway station on the Hibiya Line (operated by Tokyo Metro). It is located in the Kodenmachō neighborhood of Nihonbashi, Chūō, Tokyo, Japan. Its number is H-15.

Station layout

Kodemmacho Station has two platforms separated by two tracks. Track 1 is for passengers traveling toward Ginza, Roppongi and Naka-Meguro Stations. Track 2 serves those heading toward Ueno and Kita-senju Stations.

Around the station

The station serves the Kodemmachō neighborhood. The area has many office buildings. The boundary of Chūō and Chiyoda wards is nearby.

The Sōbu Rapid Line passes underneath Kodemmachō. However, it does not stop at the station. Passengers that want to transfer on to the Sōbu Line from Kodemmachō can walk to Bakurochō Station or Shin-Nihombashi Station, which are both less than ten minutes away on foot.

History

Kodemmacho Station opened on May 31, 1962.

On March 20, 1995, three packages containing sarin were kicked from a train onto the station platform during the sarin gas attack on the Tokyo subway, resulting in four deaths at the station. More deaths occurred at this station than at any other of the stations attacked.

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