公路局預估,今天仍有出遊車潮湧現,省道易壅塞路段包含銜接國道快速公路,包括:北部台65線銜接國3土城交流道及台64線銜接國3中和交流道、中部台74線銜接國3霧峰交流道、南部台86線銜接仁德系統及歸仁交流道、台18線銜接國3中埔交流道及台88線鳳山至五甲路段等;主要省道幹道像是台61線淡水至八里、鳳鼻至香山及竹南路段、台9甲線新店至烏來、台9線南迴公路及台1線水底寮至楓港等路段。

Due to the unsatisfactory land acquisition and the incomplete relocation of the demolished households, the opening date of Taoyuan Airport's third runway has been postponed from 2030 to December 2033 after the completion of operational tests. The third terminal is expected to be completed and opened by the end of next year.

Kaohsiung Xiaogang International Airport will add a three-dimensional parking lot and parking space on the east side by the end of next year. The second and fourth phases of the terminal project are planned to be completed by 2040, which will increase the annual international passenger capacity to 14.9 million passengers. The Kaohsiung City Government and citizens continue to call for the lifting of the curfew to support long-haul flights and cargo demand in the science and technology park. However, the Civil Aviation Administration maintains the curfew on the grounds of maintaining the quality of life of surrounding residents, and points out that the construction of new airports needs to consider environmental protection, international norms and sustainability, and requires long-term wind direction assessment.

Taichung International Airport has been hampered in its expansion due to restrictions on military-civilian use. The existing facilities are unable to cope with the huge increase in the number of passengers. There are more than 30 international routes and the annual traffic volume is estimated to exceed 3 million passengers. However, there are only two luggage carousels and parking is difficult. Legislators He Xinchun, Jiang Qichen, Cai Qichang and experts called for accelerating the construction of the third terminal, improving parking and external transportation, and planning a maintenance area based on the advantages of the aerospace industry. The Ministry of Transportation and the Civil Aviation Administration stated that the overall plan for 2045 is under review.

The Kaohsiung City Public Works Bureau invested 11 million yuan to renovate and adjust the elevation of the 2.4-kilometer-long section 3 of Agongdian Road (from Qianfeng Road to Shanbahata Road) to solve the problem of a maximum height difference of 50 centimeters on the wavy road surface, improve the smoothness and load-bearing capacity of the road, and has been completed and opened to traffic to improve the quality of commuting and industrial transportation.

When Taiwan Railway's Ziqiang train No. 123 arrived at Changhua Station on the afternoon of the 26th, thick smoke came out of the locomotive's chassis. The Taiwan Railways urgently evacuated all passengers on the train and dispatched backup trains to connect them. There were no casualties. The Taiwan Railways has set up a task force to investigate the cause of the smoke and provide refunds and compensation measures to affected passengers.

In response to the demand for transportation during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Taiwan Railway Corporation announced that it will operate an additional train from Taitung to Taipei on September 28, the holiday, and ticket bookings will be open from 0:00 on the 27th.
