Machine-translated summary — verify against original

On February 3, 2026, the Kanto Transport Bureau issued administrative guidance to East Japan Railway Company (JR East) regarding incidents affecting railway safety and stable transportation. These included a power outage on January 16, 2026, causing prolonged train delays on the Yamanote Line, and a wire disconnection at Ueno Station on January 30, 2026, leading to similar delays on the Joban Line. Additionally, on February 2, 2026, smoke from an escalator at Hatchobori Station on the Keiyo Line caused temporary service suspension, impacting many passengers. JR East is warned to investigate the underlying causes, take measures to prevent recurrence, and report these actions promptly in writing.

鉄道の安全・安定輸送の確保については、機会あるごとに注意喚起してきたところであるが、令和８年１月１６日には、停電により山手線などで長時間にわたる運転見合せが発生し、当局より警告書を発出したところである。また、令和８年１月３０日には、上野駅構内において架線の断線により常磐線などで長時間にわたる運転見合せが発生し、鉄道局から原因究明及び再発防止策の検討について、口頭で指示している。 こうした状況下、令和８年２月２日には、京葉線八丁堀駅にて、エスカレーターから発煙し、一時、運転見合わせが発生したことで多くの利用者に影響が出たことは大変残念である。 ついては、八丁堀駅での発煙事案に関して、背後要因を含めて原因の究明を行い、再発防止のための措置を講じ、鉄道の安全・安定輸送の確保に万全を期すよう警告する。 なお、講じた措置等については、文書により速やかに報告されたい。【関東運輸局】
