However, due to the deterioration of the Japanese National Railways' business at the time, it was decided to postpone the construction of the Tohoku Shinkansen line (Morioka City - Aomori City) for the time being. The Shin-Aomori Station that was established was a small, unmanned station with a single platform and one track that served only as an intermediate station on the Ou Main Line

Twenty-four years later,December 4, 2010 (Heisei 22),the Tohoku Shinkansen line was finally extended and opened between Hachinohe Station and Shin-Aomori Station. In conjunction with the opening of the Shinkansen, Shin-Aomori Station also underwent construction of a new station building and development of the area in front of the station, transforming it into the gateway to the Shinkansen for Aomori City.
