The T2K ND280 Upgrade aims to reduce systematic uncertainties in measurements of neutrino oscillation parameters and improve sensitivity to the charge-parity (CP)-violating phase, $δ_{\mathrm{CP}}$. A key component is the Time-of-Flight (ToF) detector, comprising six panels with 118 EJ-200 plastic-scintillator bars surrounding the Super Fine-Grained Detector (SuperFGD) and two High-Angle Time Projection Chambers (HA-TPCs). Each bar is read out at both ends by silicon photomultiplier arrays and digitised using SAMPIC waveform electronics. The ToF provides precise timing and particle-direction information for particle identification and rejection of backgrounds entering the tracker from outside. This article presents the detector design, construction, signal reconstruction, integration, commissioning, and performance. Dedicated single-bar measurements achieve a time resolution of approximately 130 ps and a longitudinal position resolution of 2.6 cm. After installation in ND280, cosmic-ray calibration yields an in situ single-bar time resolution of $169 \pm 1$ ps for Top-Bottom crossing events. Beam data clearly resolve the eight-bunch T2K spill structure, confirming synchronisation with the ND280 trigger and data-acquisition systems. The ToF has been successfully commissioned and operates stably within the upgraded ND280 detector.
