A new station building was completed in February 2007.[1] From 14 March 2015, with the opening of the Hokuriku Shinkansen extension from NaganotoKanazawa, local passenger operations over sections of the Shinetsu Main Line and Hokuriku Main Line running roughly parallel to the new Shinkansen line were reassigned to third-sector railway operating companies.[4] From this date, Kita-Nagano Station was transferred to the ownership of the third-sector operating company Shinano Railway.
