Violation

Machine-translated summary — verify against original

Between November 8 and 11, 2021, the Japan East Railway Company (JR East) underwent a safety audit conducted by the Kanto Transportation Bureau. The audit revealed that at Jinbohara Station and Gunma Yawata Station, the supports for train tracks and catenary wires on the platforms did not implement measures to prevent tower falls as required by Article 7 of the Electrical Equipment Implementation Standards. The company is instructed to investigate the underlying causes of these deficiencies, take appropriate management and corrective actions to prevent recurrence, and report the measures taken by February 14, 2022. This guidance is issued under the Railway Technical Standards Enforcement Ordinance.
