The Sakura-dōri Line (桜通線, Sakura-dōri-sen) is a subway line, part of the Nagoya Municipal Subway system in Nagoya, Japan. It runs from Nakamura Kuyakusho Station in Nakamura Ward to Tokushige in Midori Ward, all within Nagoya. The Sakura-dōri Line's color on maps is red. In 2004, the city started to change all station signs. The new signs have a station name followed by a single letter and a number. In the case of Sakura-dōri Line, the letter is S. Officially, the line is called Nagoya City Rapid Railway Line 6 (名古屋市高速度鉄道第6号線, Nagoya-shi Kōsokudo Tetsudō Dai-roku-gō-sen). All the stations accept manaca, a rechargeable contactless smart card.

The first section of the line opened in 1989. Between Nagoya and Imaike, the line runs under Sakura-dōri Avenue, being the bypass line of Higashiyama Line. This is the only Nagoya Municipal Subway line that uses ATO system.

Extension

From Nonami, the line was extended further east to Tokushige, in Midori-ku, on 27 March 2011.[2][3] This extension also involved building a new depot near Tokushige Station. There is a plan to extend the line even further, somewhere in Toyoake City or Toyota City. There is also a plan to extend the line to opposite direction, from Nakamura Kuyakusho to somewhere in Shippō.
