Lines

Kayabacho Station is served by the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line and the Tokyo Metro Tozai Line.

Station layout

The Hibiya and Tozai lines cross perpendicularly at the station and so do their platforms. The Hibiya Line has two side platforms with southbound trains using track 1 and northbound trains using track 2. In contrast, the Tozai Line has a single island platform with tracks on either side; platform 3 serves eastbound trains whilst platform 4 serves westbound trains.
