Register
Japan — Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism

What the ministry says is wrong

3分割式の突入防止装置において、外側の突入防止装置を支えるステーの強度が不足しているため、ステーの根元部に亀裂が発生するものがある。 そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると亀裂が進行し、最悪の場合、外側の突入防止装置が道路上に落下し、他の交通の安全を妨げるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、突入防止装置を対策品と交換する。 なお、対策品の供給に時間を要することから、当面の暫定措置として、全車両点検し、亀裂が発生しているものは、新品と交換する。

The two passages above are quoted in Japanese because that is the language the ministry published them in. This site keeps the wording a register had when it was read, and does not translate a safety notice.

This site gathered the record, grouped it by notification number and set it in English around the ministry's own words; the notice itself is unaltered.
