Odasakae Station is served by the 4.1 km Nambu Branch Line between Shitte and Hama-Kawasaki. Located between Kawasaki-Shinmachi and Hama-Kawasaki, it is 2.7 km from the starting point of the line at Shitte.[1]
The station consists of two side platforms approximately 50 m long serving two tracks on the otherwise single-track line. The platforms are separated by the Odasakae level crossing, with the down (Hama-Kawasaki-bound) platform located on the north-west (Shitte) side, and the up (Shitte-bound) platform on the south-east (Hama-Kawasaki) side.[2]

Details of the proposed station were announced by JR East in January 2015, with the station provisionally named Odasakae-Shin Station (小田栄新駅).[3] A public ballot was held in August 2015 to select the name of the new station from among three candidates: Odasakae Station (小田栄駅), Oda-Kawasaki Station (小田川崎駅), and Oda-Yasaka-Shin Station (小田弥栄駅).[1] The name Odasakae was announced in September 2015.[4]
The total construction cost of approximately 548 million yen was borne equally by JR East and the city of Kawasaki.[4]The stationeries was opened on March 26, 2016.
From 1 October 2016, JR East has introduced station numbering in the Tokyo area, with Odasakae Station becoming "JN 53".[5]
The station is expected to be used by an average of approximately 3,500 passengers daily.[4]
