Undōkōen Station (Miyazaki)
Undōkōen Station (運動公園駅, Undōkōen-eki) } is a passenger railway station located in the city of Miyazaki City, Miyazaki Prefecture, Japan. It is operated by JR Kyushu and is on the Nichinan Line.

Lines

The station is served by the Nichinan Line and is located 9.0 km from the starting point of the line at Minami-Miyazaki.

Layout

The station consists of a side platform serving a single track at grade. The station building is a simple open-concept structure that serves mainly as a weather shelter for passengers on the platform. A ticket window has been built but is not staffed. From the station entrance, a pedestrian bridge leads across the main road to the Miyazaki Sports Park, the facility which gives its name to the station.

History

Japanese National Railways (JNR) opened the station on 18 March 1984 as a temporary stop on the existing track of the Nichinan Line. With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, JR Kyushu assumed control of Undōkōen and upgraded it to a full station.

Passenger statistics

In fiscal 2016, the station was used by an average of 31 passengers (boarding only) per day.
