I. Project origin:
The high-speed railway was built by the government to improve the quality of railway transportation services in western Taiwan, shorten the round-trip travel time between the north and the south, promote local development, shorten the urban-rural gap, and increase economic efficiency. With the fast, safe, punctual, comfortable and high-quality passenger transport services, we will expand the living space for locals, strengthen social and economic activities, and stimulate the development potential of the region to achieve the goal of improving the quality of transportation.
In line with the construction plan for the high-speed railway, the Government has drawn up plans for specific areas at five stations including Taoyuan, Hsinchu, Taichung, Chiayi and Tainan along the high-speed railway. Through the urban planning process, the future development of the specific areas of the stations will be reasonably planned to have well-established public facilities. Suitable land use zones will make the station-specific areas the new and diverse town center suitable for leisure and recreational activities.
In order to implement the above-mentioned planning results, the government will acquire the land at favorable prices, carry out planning and design operations of various public works, and complete the public works of specific areas in line with the construction and operation schedules for five stations (including High Speed Rail Taoyuan Station). This will attract people and industries to step in and promote development of local business and head towards prosperity.

Public works in specific areas of Hsinchu Station are expected to achieve the following six goals according to the needs of urban development and the urban design reviewing guidelines:
(1) Creating a high-quality living and business activity environment based on the rational use of land for urban planning.
(2) Provide facilities as the foundation for public works on the station land and industry-specific area.
(3) Integrate specific areas and surrounding cities and townships for balanced development.
(4) Develop specific areas into the new core in the Greater Hsinchu area.
(5) Maximize the benefits of development in specific areas.
(6) Develop a medical center in western Taiwan to complement the emerging biomedical parks.
