History
The privately run Kyushu Railway had begun laying down its network on Kyushu in 1889 and by 1890 had a stretch of track from Template:STN southwards to Template:STN. The track was extended northwards from Hakata to Template:STN by 28 September 1890, with Hakozaki being opened on the same day as one of the intermediate stations. When the Kyushu Railway was nationalized on 1 July 1907, Japanese Government Railways (JGR) took over control of the station. On 12 October 1909, the station became part of the Hitoyoshi Main Line and then on 21 November 1909, part of the Kagoshima Main Line. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, JR Kyushu took over control of the station.[3][4] From October 2001 to November 2003, construction work to build a new elevated station was undertaken. The new station was opened on 13 March 2004 and is about 400 metres north of the old location.[2]
