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.
The High-Speed Railway Taichung Station is subject to acquisition for public works. According to the needs of urban planning and development, we expect to achieve the following five goals:
(1) Create a new environment for high-quality living and industrial development.
(2) Provide facilities as the foundation for public works on the station land, residential area and industry-specific area.
(3) It will be built as a major transportation hub in the central region, and will generate the biggest benefit of transportation in the central region.
(4) Integrate the station area and the surrounding urban and rural areas for development, so that the development area can be the new core for the development of the Greater Taichung area.
(5) Provide convenient transportation services for the development of large-scale logistics parks, and promote the Greater Taichung area as a key town for science and technology advances.
II. Project scope
The station area is located within the scope of the "Special Area Plan for the Wangtian Interchange of the Expressway." It belongs to the Wuri District of Taichung City in terms of the administrative area. The north side, east side, south side of the planning area are identical to the north side, east side, and south side of the specific area of the Wangtian Interchange. On the west side, Wangtian interchange of Zhongshan Expressway is the boundary.
III. Area: 203.18 hectares.
