History
Yahagibashi Station opened on 1 June 1923 as a station on the privately held Aichi Electric Railway, in what is now the city of Okazaki, Aichi Prefecture. The Aichi Electric Railway was absorbed into the Meitetsu group on 1 August 1935, bringing the station into the Meitetsu Nagoya Main Line system, where it sits 32.5 kilometres from the line's terminus at Toyohashi. The station has two island platforms connected by a footbridge serving three running tracks, with a fourth shunt platform that handles turn-back movements but carries no through traffic. It is staffed, equipped with automated ticket machines and Manaca IC fare gates, and in fiscal 2017 handled about 6,609 passengers daily.

Notes
Track 4 at Yahagibashi is a shunt-only platform with no through service, used for turn-back movements within the Meitetsu Nagoya Main Line rather than for regular passenger boarding.
