It is the oldest underground railway line in Japan: the portion between Ueno and Ginza was completed by the Tokyo Underground Railway on December 30, 1927. The line reached Shibuya in 1939, although the segment west of Aoyama-itchome was operated by a separate company, Tokyo Rapid Railway, from 1937 to the TRTA's consolidation in 1941.
The 14.3km line serves the wards of Shibuya, Minato, Chuo, Chiyoda, and Taito.
