History

Nijubashimae Station opened on March 20, 1971.

The station facilities were inherited by Tokyo Metro after the privatization of the Teito Rapid Transit Authority (TRTA) in 2004. [3]

Since 17 March 2018, Nijubashimae Station has been also known as Nijubashimae Station (Marunouchi) as a secondary station name to increase awareness of the station's location in the Marunouchi area, and to encourage passengers to use the station in conjunction with the surrounding stations. [4]
