中秋節4天連續假期出遊、返鄉人潮超多,台灣高鐵公司提醒,今明兩天許多民眾返工、返學,尤其明天下午2時至晚間7時將迎來超尖峰時段,且「台中以南」是重點壅塞車站,呼籲自由座民眾離峰、分散搭乘。
高鐵公司表示,這次中秋節連假第1天就是中秋節,許多旅客選擇在假期前1天傍晚與假期首日返鄉,各運輸系統運量明顯攀升,高鐵南下旅客人次也在9月24日首度超過單日20萬人次,創下營運紀錄,2天內增加5.4萬個座位需求,各車站自由座大量排隊人潮。

高鐵公司指出,因應中秋節及教師節假期疏運(9月24日至29日)人潮,現有34組列車全數出動,6天共加開176班次列車(南下70班、北上106班),6天共提供1150班次的旅運服務。依據過往疏運經驗分析,下一波旅客高峰將落在今明2天北返,明天下午2點至7點更是旅運超尖峰時段,且台中以南車站屬於較長程的路線、較仰賴高鐵,因此每年連假北上人潮多是集中在台中以南的車站。
高鐵公司呼籲旅客,利用離峰、分散搭乘,準備搭乘自由座前,可預先透過高鐵企業網站、「T-EX行動購票」App查詢或LINE TODAY「生活頻道」,掌握當日各站「自由座等候時間」預估燈號,利用綠色燈號的離峰時段搭車。
台鐵公司表示,9月24日、中秋連假前1天台鐵旅客量達84.6萬人次,約是平日1.3倍,光是9月24、25日2天台鐵疏運就達157.4萬人次,較去年增加10.9%。為疏運收假北返人潮,明天再加開彰化至七堵間(經山線)6402次區間快車,並支援高鐵台中站大量旅客,於新烏日站規劃增停新自強號列車4列次,加強疏運。

The Taiwan Railway Corporation and The Pokémon Company have launched a Pokémon 30th anniversary themed train, which is designed to be fully covered by the EMU800 shuttle bus. Chaozhou Station in southern Taiwan is the departure and destination station in the near future. Poke balls and adventure elements are integrated into the train, and commemorative tickets, gifts and pop-up shops are provided. In the future, it will be included in the normal operation and will shuttle between the northern, central and southern sections every day.

The Taiwan Railway's Jiji branch line has resumed operation. The Nantou County government will invite social media celebrities to shoot "playable" videos to promote tourism in towns and villages along the line with the theme of attractions and food. It will also be combined with Taiwan's Haoxing Express to travel to Sun Moon Lake and other places to create a new low-carbon tourism experience.

The Taiwan Railway's Jiji branch line resumed service at the end of June. The Japan Railway Administration Office and the Mountain Touring Office planned a "dual-rail" tour combining iron horses and railways to promote sightseeing along the line. The number of passengers increased by nearly 50% in the first month of resumption. Next year, the number of flights will be increased to 28 and new bicycle carriages will be added to connect Sun Moon Lake, Checheng and other scenic spots, which is expected to set off a tourism trend.

The tourism exchange between Nantou County and Hamamatsu City in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan, started in 2016 and entered its tenth year this year. The two sides signed a friendly exchange agreement to attract tourists to each other through information sharing and tourism product promotion, and prepared a limited number of 100 gifts for tourists visiting each other's cities.

New Taipei City's Huwei Leisure Agricultural Zone will hold the "Land Life Festival" on October 4. The event focuses on the cross-border integration of "land, life and art" and includes a rural sustainable market, parent-child art experience and the "Roofless Theater" created by the Tamkang University Experimental Theater Troupe. It aims to deepen the integration of leisure agriculture and local culture and allow the public to experience the connection between agriculture, culture and life through practical participation.

The Highway Bureau of the Ministry of Transport released the national highway traffic forecast for the third day of the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday (September 27), pointing out that the key congested sections in the morning include the National Highway 1 northbound Xiluo to Changhua, Nantun to Houli, Miaoli to Hukou, Yuanshan to Dahua system, the National Highway 3 northbound Dashan to Xiangshan, the National Highway 5 northbound Yilan to Pinglin and other road sections, and announced the day's diversion measures and historical traffic volume comparison.
