Machine-translated summary — verify against original

On September 26, 2024, the Hokkaido Transport Bureau conducted a safety audit of Chuo Bus Tourism Development Co., Ltd. (corporate number 9430001091144) headquartered in Otaru, Hokkaido. The audit revealed that the company failed to record inspection results for the Otaru Tengu Mountain Ropeway, Panorama Pair Lift, and Summit Family Lift during scheduled inspections under the Railway Business Act and related regulations. Specifically, the company did not record the condition of the winding device during the January and December inspections of the Otaru Tengu Mountain Ropeway, the tension of the support cable and the condition of the transmission equipment during the appropriate confirmation inspection of the Panorama Pair Lift, and the appearance condition of the electrical equipment during the January inspection of the Summit Family Lift. The Transport Bureau has instructed the company to take necessary measures to ensure proper recording of inspection results in accordance with Articles 8 of the Regulations for the Maintenance of Double-Track and Single-Track Fixed Circulating Ropeways. The company is required to report the measures taken by November 15, 2024.
