The station consists of a side platform serving a single track. The station building is unstaffed and serves only as a waiting room. The present track was once track 2 of two tracks being served by an island platform. The trackbed of the now removed track 1 runs on the other side of the platform. A paved path from the station building crosses this old trackbed to a ramp which gives access to the platform.[2][5][3]
