Vehicles parked for more than 3 minutes will be banned. If pick-up users do not want to get stuck in the traffic queue or be fined, there is an alternative pick-up point "200 meters away" to choose from.

As for "stopping to pick up people", which is the most troublesome thing for pick-up passengers, the police specifically reminded that technological enforcement will be implemented on the first and second floors of the station area throughout the day, and fines will be issued if you stop for more than 3 minutes. The second floor is the drop-off area. Passengers taking cars 7 to 12 or free seats can get off at Gate 1A in the front section and take cars 1 to 6. Passengers in carriages can get off at Door 1B or Door 2, and separate the passengers according to the location of the carriages to avoid everyone crowding in the same place. The first floor is the passenger area. Drivers should implement "people waiting for the bus" and do not drive into the station area in advance to wait. They should wait for passengers to arrive at Gate 7 before notifying the vehicle to pick them up.
If you want to avoid the main traffic queue at the high-speed rail station, the police also provide "three steps to avoid traffic". The first step is to change your appointment at the square in front of the Taiwan Railway's Xinwuri Station, which is about 200 meters away from the high-speed rail station. Passengers can reach it on foot and avoid the main pick-up and drop-off traffic around the high-speed rail station. The second step is to use the "Taichung Transportation Network App" to check real-time traffic conditions before departure and flexibly change routes according to traffic conditions. The third step is to make good use of Taichung MRT, Taiwan Railway and urban bus transfers, which is environmentally friendly and saves time.
In response to the four-day holiday, the police have come up with pick-up and drop-off strategies at the High Speed Rail Taichung Station. (provided by police)
