The Wugu Interchange ramp improvement project is open to traffic Su Qiaohui: Thanks to the central and local governments for promoting the construction

DPP New Taipei mayor candidate and legislator Su Qiaohui attended the "Opening Ceremony of the Wugu Interchange Addition Ramp Improvement Project" on the 11th. She thanked the First Branch of the High-tech Public Security Bureau and the front-line engineering team for working day and night to promote the project. This project is located in the busiest traffic bottleneck area. The construction team "dressed and changed their clothes" and carried out nearly 600 late-night constructions so that the Wugu Interchange's north ramp project could be completed more than five months ahead of schedule. It will be officially opened to traffic at 6 a.m. on the 12th, which also means that the entire Wugu Interchange ramp improvement project is fully open to traffic.

When Su Qiaohui arrived at the scene, she had warm greetings and frequent interactions with New Taipei City Mayor Hou Youyi who was present. Both of them were happy that the north ramp of the Wugu Interchange was opened to traffic ahead of schedule. Su Qiaohui said that because of the vigorous efforts of legislators Lin Shufen and Wu Bingrui, successive executive presidents took over. With strong support from the central government, which subsidized nearly 90% of the project funds totaling 4.3 billion yuan, and the full assistance of the New Taipei City Government, the Wugu Interchange ramp project can be successfully completed and opened to traffic, greatly improving the commuting environment for citizens of Wugu, Taishan, Linkou, and Xinzhuang.

In the future, she will continue to pay close attention to the improvement projects of the Linkou and Xizhi Interchanges on National Highway 1, as well as the Jincheng Interchange project on National Highway 3, and looks forward to the opportunity to join hands with the central and city government teams to continue to improve the daily commuting environment for citizens and friends.

Su Qiaohui mentioned that the Wugu Interchange improvement project was actively coordinated by then political councilor Wu Zecheng in 2020, approved by Executive President Su Zhenchang, and started in 2023 by then Executive President Chen Jianren. Executive President Zhuo Rongtai attached great importance to it. Last October, Zhuo Rongtai and she witnessed the completion and opening of the north exit ramp and Taishan interchange. In May this year, she also inspected the completion of the Line 64 ramp widening project with Transportation Minister Chen Shikai.

Su Qiaohui said that it is also because of the continuous support from the central government and the full cooperation of the New Taipei City Government that the ramp improvement project at the Wugu Interchange can be successfully opened to traffic. In the future, it will not only greatly improve the ramp back blockage problem, but also increase the speed of the main line. Linkou to Xinzhuang will be shortened from 21 minutes to 7 minutes, and the northbound route of Provincial Highway 65 connecting National Highway 1 will be shortened from 15 minutes to 3 minutes.

Su Qiaohui said that in recent years, the central government has strongly supported the New Taipei Interchange improvement project. She and legislator Wu Qiming have fought for a full central government subsidy of 2.75 billion yuan for the "Additional Jincheng Interchange on National Highway 3". The central government also strongly supports the Linkou Interchange improvement project, the Xizhi Interchange improvement project, and the Zhonghe Interchange improvement project on National Highway 3. In the future, she looks forward to the opportunity to lead the New Taipei City Government team and join hands with the central government to strive for more resources and improve the transportation environment for citizens.
