Violation

Machine-translated summary — verify against original

On February 9, 2022, the Shikoku Transport Bureau issued administrative guidance to Takamatsu Kotohira Electric Railway Co., Ltd. under the Railway Business Act. The guidance was prompted by an incident at the Shinagawa Embankment level crossing on the Nagao Line, where a train passed through without the crossing being lowered. The company had previously experienced similar incidents on January 28 and December 3, 2021, despite implementing measures to prevent recurrence. The bureau expressed regret over the incident and issued a strict warning to thoroughly investigate the underlying causes, including the factors behind the occurrence, and to take measures to prevent future incidents. The company is required to report the investigation results and measures taken in writing without delay. The company name is Takamatsu Kotohira Electric Railway Co., Ltd., located in Takamatsu City, Kagawa Prefecture. The legal basis for the guidance is the Ministerial Ordinance on Technical Standards for Railways.
