Machine-translated summary — verify against original

Between November 24 and 27, 2020, the Tohoku Transport Bureau conducted a safety audit of Konan Railway Co., Ltd. Based on the audit results, the bureau identified issues requiring corrective action. The company was instructed to improve its safety management system, including establishing a system for accurately understanding on-site conditions, regularly verifying operational status, and addressing identified issues. Specific deficiencies included the failure to conduct track displacement inspections of switches as required by the Track Facility Implementation Standards, and the presence of obstructions affecting platform building limits. The company was directed to promptly take necessary measures based on the standards, investigate underlying causes including root causes, and implement measures to prevent recurrence. Additionally, it was advised to review and confirm various regulations related to periodic inspections, ensure compliance with laws, and educate relevant personnel to establish an appropriate management system. The company was required to report on the measures taken by July 26, 2021.
