Machine-translated summary — verify against original

On January 13-14, 2022, an safety audit was conducted on Wakkanai City. The audit revealed that some inspections and checks mandated by maintenance regulations were not performed, and some records were not preserved. Discrepancies were found between the maintenance regulations and actual cable car facilities, including uninspected facilities and facilities with issues that were incorrectly marked as satisfactory. The authorities have instructed the city to promptly review and revise the maintenance regulations, ensure all inspections are properly conducted and recorded, and carry out any overdue inspections immediately. Additionally, despite repairs to the brake cylinder of the regular brake system in January 2021, temporary inspections following repairs were not performed. The city is required to understand relevant laws correctly and establish a system to conduct appropriate temporary inspections. Furthermore, some staff members responsible for cable car operations have not received necessary training. The city must provide training to those who have not yet been trained and ensure future training is conducted properly. The guidance was issued by the Hokkaido Transport Bureau.
