Attention! Traffic surges at Taichung High Speed Rail Station during the National Day holidays, and technology enforcement will issue fines if the train stops for more than 3 minutes

As the National Day holiday started, there was a rush of traffic at Taichung High Speed ​​Rail Station.

Starting from today (8th), Taiwan's High Speed ​​Rail will operate eight additional trains with "free seats for all trains" to transport passengers in conjunction with the National Day holiday. A large number of people and trains are also expected to appear at the High Speed ​​Rail Taichung Station. The police have implemented a new system of "waiting for trains with people". Technological law enforcement will be implemented in the station area around the clock. If the train stops for more than 3 minutes, it will be banned in accordance with the law.

Wuri police emphasized that drivers who want to see off passengers on the 2nd floor of the high-speed rail station should go to the designated alighting area on the 2nd floor of the first floor of the station area. Passengers who stop at the station will be divided according to the location of the carriages. Passengers taking carriages 7 to 12 or free seats should get off at gate 1A in the front section. Passengers taking carriages 1 to 6 should go forward to gate 1B in the middle section or get off at gate 2 in the rear section.

As for the dedicated passenger area on the first floor, the police call on drivers to "wait for the bus" and wait for passengers to arrive at gate 7 before notifying the driver to drive to pick up or drop off. Otherwise, technological enforcement will be implemented around the clock on the first and second floors. If the parking exceeds 3 minutes, illegal parking will be banned in accordance with the law.

The police have also planned cross-regional traffic diversion proposals, providing drivers in Nantou, Changhua and Taichung with ways to enter and exit the station, and providing "steps" to avoid the traffic flow. They called for changing to the "Taiwan Railway Xinwuri Station Square", which is only about 200 meters away from the high-speed rail station. It is the best alternative pick-up point and effectively avoids the main high-speed rail traffic flow.
