Shin-tsunashima Station (新綱島駅, Shin-Tsunashima-eki) is a railway station in Yokohama, Japan, operated by Tokyu Corporation. The station is part of the Tōkyū Shin-yokohama Line.[2][3][4]

Between August and September 2020, Tokyu Corporation held a public survey to decide the name of this station. The questionnaire asked the participants to choose between "Shin-tsunashima" (lit. New Tsunashima) and "Higashi-tsunashima" (東綱島, lit. East Tsunashima) or suggest a different name which is not "Tsunashima". The survey saw 1898 people submitted their answers. "Shin-tsunashima" won with 381 votes. "Tsunashima-onsen" (綱島温泉, lit. Tsunashima Hot-spring) was the most popular free suggestion with 247 votes, more than the 176 votes of "Higashi-tsunashima". Other notable suggestions were "Tsunashima Higashi" (綱島東) and "Ōtsunabashi" (大綱橋).[7][8]
Because of the close proximity between Shin-tsunashina and Tsunashima stations, all fares between Shin-tsunashima and Hiyoshi are the same as between Tsunashima and Hiyoshi. All season/commuter passes which cover the section between Tsunashima and Hiyoshi allow entering/exiting Shin-tsunashima without additional charge, and vice versa.[9] However, there is no free out-of-station interchange arrangement between Shin-tsunashima and Tsunashima. Exiting one station and entering the other station is treated as starting a separate journey.[10]
Shin-tsunashima Station opened on 18 March 2023, coinciding with the opening of the Tōkyū Shin-yokohama Line.[1]
