History
Yui-no-mori-nishi Station (no. 13) is an Utsunomiya Light Rail Utsunomiya-Haga LRT Line tram stop in Yui-no-mori 1-chōme, Utsunomiya, built at the "Karinuma-chō Intersection" between Tochigi Prefectural Route 69 (Utsunomiya-Mōka) and Tochigi Prefectural Route 64 (Utsunomiya-Mukōda). The provisional name during planning was "Tekunoporisu-nishi". The Akutsu Seibi vehicle-repair company in Yui-no-mori 5-chōme purchased the naming rights and added the sub-name "Akutsu Seibi-mae". The stop's name was decided on 23 April 2021, and it opened on 26 August 2023. The stop has a staggered two-platform layout — the Haga-Takanezawa-direction platform east of the intersection and the Utsunomiya Station East-direction platform west of it.
