I.Origin:
To resolve the disorderly and unorganized city appearance in the perimeter of Daqing Station and to speed up the development of the areas around HSR Wuri Station, "The 13th land consolidation project in Taichung City" is being promoted by the Taichung City Government in the hope of realizing the development vision for such consolidation area under aggregated planning. In addition to creating a new horizon for the economic development of local industry, the plan will also be executed by conserving the ecological landscape and native cultural and artistic features. The ultimate goal is to present a happy and culture-oriented city through the planning of sidewalks, greenery trails, landscape bridges and a lush green park system.
The area of the 13th land consolidation district is about 235 hectares. The project includes 4 civil engineering tenders, the west side of Huangzhong Road widening by 20m engineering, the integrated tender affected by the Macipu site and modifications of the urban plan, bridges and reconstruction of the backflow ditch below Xichuan 2nd Road into an ecological landscape channel engineering tender, and the detention pond engineer. By now, 4 civil engineering tenders and bridges and reconstruction of the backflow ditch below Xichuan 2nd Road into an ecological landscape channel engineering tender have been completed.
II.Scope:
The entire consolidation site lies on the east of Liming Road and Yongchun East 3rd Road, on the west of Xichuan 1st Road, on the north of Jianguo North Road, and on the south of the centerline of Wenxin South 7th Road.
III.Area: About 235 hectares.
IV.Project host: Bureau of Land Administration, Taichung City Government
V.Project management agency for the bridge tender: Land Consolidation Engineering Bureau, Ministry of the Interior.
VI.Planning, design and supervision unit for 4 civil engineering tenders: Land Consolidation Engineering Bureau, Ministry of the Interior.
VII.Poject Content:
(I)Bridge Tender:
1.The 1st Bridge - Yuyin Bridge spans the Mayuantou River, with a width of 71.96 meters and a bridge length of 37.6 meters to symbolize prosperity of the city after the consolidation.
2.The 2nd Bridge - Border Bridge (Rao Jing Bridge) spans the Mayuantou River, with a width of 46.56 meters and a bridge length of 41.9 meters. It reflects "the hardworking of ancestors."
3.The 3rd Bridge - Wudie Bridge spans the Mayuantou River, with a width of 39.96 meters and a bridge length of 41.7 meters. The concept of the shape is derived from the appearance of the yoke and the rake as the agricultural tools. The two sides of the bridge are styled in the yoke to look like the butterfly wing.
4.The 4th Bridge - Hefeng Bridge spans the Mayuantou River, with a width of 43 meters and a bridge length of 42.2 meters. The steel components are connected in series in the shape of the "yoke" and then interconnected with the circular steel pipes. When you drive a car to enter the consolidation area from the old city,the image of "tunnel crossing" can be felt.
5.The 5th Bridge - Renben Bridge spans Nantun River, with a width of 40.24 meters and a bridge length of 17.2 meters. The shape is based on the "herringbone(Y-shaped)" as the main axis of the plan. With the inverse geometric curve that conforms to the change, and the exquisite shape of the steel structure, a layered sense of "high-rise" is presented. The overall pattern attempts to reflect the "people-oriented" and "rich and satisfied" sense in the consolidation area.
6.The 6th Bridge - Xichuan Bridge is an ecological landscape channel that is reconstructed from the return channel below the Xichuan 2nd Road. The width is 36.2 meters and the bridge is 33 meters long. It symbolizes the imagery of the "Swan" and echoes "Returning to the Nature and Ecology" as the image concept of ecological landscape channel.
7.The 7th Bridge - Chonglun Bridge is an ecological landscape channel that is reconstructed from the return channel below the Xichuan 2nd Road. The width is 33.1 meters and the bridge is 32 meters long. It symbolizes the image of the "Flying Gull Spreading Wing" which echoes the "prosperous city" after the consolidation.
8.The 8th Bridge - Fenglin Bridge spans Nantun River, with a width of 36.76 meters and a bridge length of about 18.9 meters. The rear part of railings on both sides of the bridge symbolizes the conceptual shape of "3D Wings" or "Maple Leaf" which conforms to the unique landscape of "Maple Forest" and "Maple Leaf" in Nanxun District.
9.The returning ditch of Mayuantou River is rebuilt into the ecological landscape channel, with the functions of diversion, ecology, natural purification and landscape for the design goals and directions. The ecological landscape channel is a water park. With different use zones, it creates its own spatial characteristics and provides a rich leisure experience for the people.
(1)"Aquatic Plant Purification Zone": Aquatic plants are planted at the inlet to improve the water quality of the channel.
(2)"Island Rest Area": Set up an ecological island to provide a habitat for wildlife, and the island rest trail can provide a static resting space.
(3)"Performance Stage Area": Set the performance stage and stepped seats for performance activities.
(4)"Activity Lawn Area": Provide grassland activities for the entrance area of Jianguo North Road.
