Machine-translated summary — verify against original

Between August 29 and August 31, 2023, the Fukui Regional Transport Bureau conducted a safety audit of Echizen Railway Co., Ltd. Based on the audit results, the bureau identified issues requiring improvement, including failure to address building clearance obstructions at Wazuka-Harihira Station's high-floor platform, inadequate height of overhead communication lines at multiple level crossings, and insufficient separation distances of overhead electrical wires from utility beams. The bureau instructed the company to implement corrective measures promptly, investigate underlying causes including root causes, and prevent recurrence. The company is required to report on the measures taken by January 29, 2024. The guidance emphasizes the need for adherence to the Railway Technical Standards Ordinance and related implementation standards, and the establishment of appropriate maintenance and safety management systems.
