Machine-translated summary — verify against original

On February 14, 2024, the Hokkaido Transport Bureau conducted a safety audit of Kutchan Town. The audit found that modifications to the ski lift at Asahigaoka Ski Resort, carried out in 2017 and 2020, were performed prior to completing the procedures required under Article 12 of the Railway Business Act, which is an extension of Article 38 of the same law. The bureau instructed the town to take appropriate measures to prevent similar occurrences in the future. Additionally, deficiencies were found in the inspection and testing of cable car facilities, specifically that lighting equipment was not inspected during the December inspection (Temporary Inspection 2) as mandated by Article 5 of the Special Rules for the Construction of Single-Track Fixed Circular Ropeways, and that records of rescue device inspections under Article 8 of the same rules were not maintained. The bureau ordered the town to conduct the overdue lighting inspections, review inspection records, and establish a system to ensure proper inspections and record-keeping in accordance with Ministerial Ordinances Articles 42 and 43 concerning technical standards for cable car facilities. The report is available from the Hokkaido Transport Bureau.
