History
Takamibashi opened on 17 December 1915 on the Kagoshima Electric Tramway, and transferred to the Kagoshima Municipal Electricity Bureau (the predecessor of the current Kagoshima City Transportation Bureau) on 1 July 1928. It serves Route 2 only. Sited a short walk from Kagoshima-Chūō Station, the area has long been a business-hotel cluster — dating back to when the station next door was Nishi-Kagoshima Station, before the 2004 Kyushu Shinkansen rename.
