一向準時準點的高鐵昨天竟然發生全線大延誤,原來班次全部取消,改成每小時三班全車自由座方式運行,全天影響估計超過二十萬人;高鐵公司發言人鄒衡蕪表示,初判是「更換轉轍器控制機箱電源模組」故障所致,因今天凌晨收班後才能進行全線檢查確認,何時恢復正常營運,今天清晨首班車出發前將公告。

轉轍器訊號異常 收班後全線檢查

高鐵工程人員昨天凌晨進行營運前準備作業時,發現苗栗到台中路段號誌訊號異常,造成一早各班次出現廿分鐘以上延誤,緊急將原班表取消,八點起改成南港站南下及左營站北上,以單線雙向行駛方式,每小時整點、廿分、四十分發出三班站站停的全車自由座列車(商務車廂除外),下班尖峰時段加開班次並調整末班車時間。

由於很多通勤族搭乘高鐵上班,高鐵站內湧現大量人潮,列車塞滿人、隊伍亂排,連交通部長陳世凱、多位立委都被卡在高鐵上,導致立法院會議延後,另有民眾期中考遲到、趕不上飛機,網路上哀號遍野。

鄒衡蕪表示,昨天高鐵進行轉轍器控制機箱內的電源模組更換後,出現電流不穩定情形,導致軌道上定位訊號喪失,之前沒有發生過類似情形,今天凌晨收班後才能進行夜間搶修,確認今天是否可恢復正常營運。

交長陳世凱表示,這次高鐵是設備故障、人為疏失、操作不當,或是被攻擊等可能性都不排除,會詳加檢視,希望軌道運輸穩定;運安會指出,待高鐵釐清原因,若涉及安全問題會立案調查。
