For JR and Hanshin, “Nishinomiya Station” is the closest, but what about the Hankyu Line?

Across from City Hall is the Second Government Building. Apparently, the total construction cost was 8.44 billion yen… and there’s even a heliport on the rooftop!
The correct answer is c. Imazu Station.

・Imazu Station: 1.23km
・Shukugawa Station: 1.34km
By the way, according to Google Maps directions(using the shortest walking route)↓↓
- Nishinomiya-Kitaguchi Station: 2.1km
- Hanshinkokudo Station: 1.4km
- Imazu Station: 1.3km
- Shukugawa Station: 1.7km
The route results also show Imazu Station as the closest, though Hanshinkokudo Station is very close too.
