History
The station opened on 1 February 1901 as Script error: No such module "Nihongo"..[2] The Airport Line (then called the Haneda Branch Line) was opened in 1902. Kamata Station was renamed Script error: No such module "Nihongo". in November 1925, and again renamed Keikyū Kamata Station, the present name, on 1 June 1987.[2]
In 1995, the platforms were extended to accommodate longer 12-car trains.[3]
The station was rebuilt over a period of 12 years from December 2000 to October 2012 with the original ground-level tracks elevated to provide additional track capacity and eliminate road congestion on the three level crossings immediately adjacent to the station.[4] As a result, the project won the Good Design Award presented by the Japan Institute of Design Promotion.[5]
Keikyu introduced station numbering to its stations on 21 October 2010; Keikyū Kamata was assigned station number KK11.[6]
Future plans
Plans exist to extend the Tokyu Tamagawa Line from Kamata Station eastward by approximately 800 m to Keikyu Kamata Station. This would provide an interchange between the lines, improving accessibility to Tokyo's Haneda Airport ahead of the 2020 Summer Olympics.[7] These plans never materialized before the Olympics. since June 2022[update]Template:Dated maintenance category (articles)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters"., Ōta Ward has agreed with the Tokyo Metropolitan Government to pay 70% of the project cost of Template:JPYConvert while having the city government responsible for the remaining 30%.[8]
