[2] Only Yosan Line local trains stop at the station and they only serve the sector between Iyo-Saijō and Matsuyama.
Connections with other local or limited express trains are needed to travel further east or west along the line.
[2] Iyo-Hōjō Station opened on 28 March 1926 when the then Sanyo Line was extended from Kikuma.
With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Shikoku.
