Notes
The distance from Kizu to the adjacent Aina Station is 3.4 km, the longest inter-station spacing on the entire Ao Line. The station was rebuilt as an elevated structure in conjunction with the development of the adjacent Kobe Composite Industrial Park, to which it is linked by a dedicated pedestrian bridge.
