During the hoisting of the main beam of the Siyuan Road land bridge in Xinzhuang District, New Taipei City, two-stage traffic control will be implemented on the evening of October 2-5

The Maintenance Engineering Office of the New Taipei City Government will handle the hoisting operation of the main beam of the land bridge across New Taipei Avenue across Siyuan Road in Xinzhuang District. The exits of Section 2 of New Taipei Avenue and the Siyuan Road ramp under Provincial Highway 1 will be closed on the night of October 2 and 3. Passers-by can divert to alternative roads such as Fu Fu 3rd Street or Zhongyuan East Road in advance. In addition, in order to prevent over-height vehicles from accidentally hitting the land bridge while traveling on Section 2 of New Taipei Avenue, height-limited gantry (height limit 4.6 meters) and warning signs will be set up simultaneously.

Zheng Lihui, Director of the Maintenance Department, said that the construction project of the land bridge across New Taipei Avenue on Siyuan Road in Xinzhuang District is mainly to connect the existing air bridge system of the MRT Circular Line and the Airport MRT New Taipei Industrial Park Station to strengthen the MRT transportation and pedestrian traffic functions. The project will enter the main beam hoisting stage. To ensure construction and driving safety, traffic control will be carried out in two stages, diversion notices will be set up, and additional volunteers will be dispatched to help divert traffic.
