Violation
Administrative guidance (鉄道事業法) was issued to 錦川鉄道株式会社 following a safety audit conducted from May 19 to May 20, Reiwa 8 (2026). As improvement items were identified as a result of the audit, the company was instructed to implement corrective measures for the following matters. The company was requested to report the corrective measures taken by July 21, Reiwa 8 (2026). 1. With respect to inspection records required under Article 8 of the 岩国城索道整備細則 (Iwakuni Castle Ropeway Maintenance Detailed Rules), it was confirmed that the results of some inspections related to the hydraulic unit for the emergency braking device were not recorded. Therefore, when inspections of ropeway facilities are conducted, the company should reliably record and preserve the inspection results, and establish a system that enables those inspections to be carried out appropriately. 2. With respect to the monthly inspections required under Article 5 of the 岩国城索道整備細則, it was confirmed that some inspections related to the auxiliary prime mover were not carried out. Therefore, the company should reliably conduct the inspections, record and preserve the inspection results, and establish a system that enables those inspections to be carried out appropriately.
