Nankai Electric Railway to Renovate the Concourse Inside the Central Ticket Gates on the Second Floor of Namba Station
Nankai Electric Railway will begin renovation work on the concourse inside the central ticket gates on the second floor of Namba Station from October 1.
This is part of the town development policy for the Namba area, announced in March 2023, based on the “Greater Namba Vision”. The renovation involves removing the cosmetic bricks and floor tiles that have been used since the station’s opening in 1977, and refurbishing the space with columns designed with gentle curves and floors and walls unified in white, creating a bright, futuristic space. Additionally, to alleviate congestion around the ticket gates, chairs will be installed in areas that previously saw lower traffic.
The first phase of the construction is scheduled to be completed in March 2025.
