After the abolishment of Nagoya Municipal Tramway in the 1970s, Kamiiida Station, the terminus of Meitetsu's Komaki Line, lost its connection to Nagoya's other railway lines. The Kamiida Line, serving as link with only two stops officially on the line, was opened in 2003.[citation needed]
There is a future plan to extend the line, but the plan is currently[when?] suspended.[citation needed]
