History
Shizu Station opened on 18 March 1928 on the Keisei Electric Railway Main Line in Kami-Shizu, Sakura, Chiba. A bridge-style station building was completed in 1981, establishing the layout in its present form. The platforms sit on a curve, so along stretches of platform 1 the gap between train and platform edge is unusually wide and an audible chime sounds as trains arrive. A Tōbu-group shopping centre called Shizu Mine opened by the south exit in 1990 and connected to the station building at the third-floor level, but its anchor tenant later closed and in 2007 the complex was completely refurbished as Shizu Station Building. The station carries the code KS32 and is administered from Katsutadai Station.

Notes
Because the platforms sit on a curve, an audible warning chime sounds when trains arrive at platform 1 where the gap between train and platform is unusually wide.
