Station history

edit

Mikawa-Ōtsuka Station was opened on July 28, 1953, as a station of the JNR (Japan National Railway), however, its station building was not completed until June 24, 1954.

With the dissolution and privatization of the JNR on April 1, 1987, the station came under the control of the Central Japan Railway Company. A new station building was completed on July 20, 2005.

Station numbering was introduced to the section of the Tōkaidō Line operated JR Central in March 2018; Mikawa-Ōtsuka Station was assigned station number CA45.[1][2]
