History
Tsukushino Station opened on 1 April 1968 as the temporary terminus of the Tokyu Den-en-toshi Line's extension from Nagatsuta — initially a single-track halt with one platform face. The line was pushed on to Suzukakedai on 1 April 1972, converting Tsukushino into an intermediate station with two platforms, and the section from Nagatsuta as far as the approach to Tsukimino was double-tracked when the line reached Tsukimino on 15 October 1976. Platform elevators were added in July 2001, and platform screen doors went into service on 29 September 2019. From the 1 October 2019 timetable revision the station became a Semi-Express stop.
