Taiwan Province Metro:

Most urban rail transit systems will be laid in underground tunnels in the central part of the city. These systems can also be called underground railways, or simply subways. In Taiwan Province Province, Bangkok and Singapore, it is called "Mass Transit" (MRT). In Chinese mainland, the urban rail transit system built on the ground or viaduct is usually called "light rail". But in the professional field, the difference between "light rail" and "subway" lies in the difference in traffic volume. "Light rail" refers to the urban rail transit system with one-way traffic volume less than 20,000 people/hour, and "subway" refers to the urban rail transit system with one-way traffic volume more than 20,000 people/hour.

Let's introduce Taipei MRT:

Taipei metropolis

Taipei rapid transit (full name Taipei metropolitan rapid transit system; The English name is TaipeiMassRapidTransitSystem, abbreviated as TaipeiMRT, but Taipei MRT Company and its management route are called "metroTaipei"), which is the first metro area MRT system in Taiwan Province Province, connecting Taipei City and all parts of Taipei County.

The lines that have been opened to traffic are operated by the public enterprise "Taipei MRT Company"; The construction and planning of the route is mainly undertaken by the MRT Engineering Bureau under the Taipei Municipal Government. However, there are exceptions: the first phase of the ring road project is under the responsibility of the Taipei county government MRT team, and the airport MRT section from Mie to Chiang Kai-shek Airport is under the responsibility of the High-speed Railway Engineering Bureau of the Ministry of Communications.

According to the architectural form, the whole MRT system can be divided into three types (overhead, underground and plane). According to color, it can be divided into seven routes: brown, red, orange, green, blue, yellow and purple. At present, there are Muka Line, Danshui Line, Xindian Line, Zhonghe Line, Bannan Line, Xiaonanmen Line and two branch lines that have been opened to traffic.

Medium traffic volume part

At present, the train operation mode of Muka Line is from Zhongshan "Guo Zhong Station" to Zoo Station, with four cars as a group (but there is room for six cars on the station platform). After the future Inner Lake Line is partially completed, it will be segmented in a short time (Zhongshan "Guo Zhong Station" ~ Zoo Station; Nangang Exhibition Hall Station ~ Jiannan Road Station). After the completion of the entire Neihu Line, it will operate from Nangang Exhibition Hall Station to Zoo Station (Muzha Line and Neihu Line run through).

High capacity parts

At present, the Xinbeitou branch line, Xiaonanmen line and Xiaobitan branch line are all single-line and two-way short-distance running, in which the Xinbeitou branch line adopts a train with three carriages (converted from the general 6-carriage train) and the Xiaobitan branch line also adopts a train with three carriages (the platform itself is designed to accommodate only three carriages, but the newly purchased special train group has not been tested, and the general 6-carriage train is currently adopted).

At present, the train operation modes of Danshui Line, Xindian Line and Zhonghe Line can be divided into two types: one is through operation of Danshui Line and Xindian Line (from Danshui Station to Xindian Station), and the other is through operation of Danshui Line and Zhonghe Line (from Beitou Station to Nanshijiao Station).

In the future, after Songshan Line, Xinyi Line, Xinzhuang Line and Luzhou Branch Line are opened to traffic, Danshui Line will be directly connected with Xinyi Line, Xindian Line will be directly connected with Songshan Line and Xiaonanmen Line, and Zhonghe Line will be directly connected with Xinzhuang Line and Luzhou Branch Line. The plan is divided into two operation modes: "Huilong Station to Nanshijiao Station" and "Luzhou Station to Nanshijiao Station".

Nangang Line and Banqiao Line operate directly (both lines are collectively referred to as Bannan Line), and the operation mode is Kunyang-Xinpu; There are shuttle buses running in the rush hour.

After the future Tucheng Line is opened to traffic, Bannan Line will run directly with Tucheng Line, and the scheduled operation mode is Kunyang-Yongning.

Planning route

Including the Loop Line (Phase II), Sanying Line, Wanda Woods Line, Ankeng Line, Minsheng West Branch Line, North-South MRT Line on the east side of Taipei, Danhai Line, Shezi Light Rail and Xinyi Project Area Light Rail (planned by the people themselves). It is planned to adopt China Railway Mass Rapid Transit System or Independent Right of Way Light Rail Transit System.

Service configuration file

All stations of Taipei MRT have WIFI wireless internet access areas. At present, there are 6/kloc-0 stations in operation, with an average daily travel volume of about 970,000 passengers. The operation time is mostly 6: 00 ~ 0: 00, and the frequency interval is about 3 ~ 15 minutes (because the route and sharp off-peak are slightly different). Eating, smoking, chewing gum and betel nut are prohibited in the station payment area.

In addition to the ticket vending machines that sell magnetic card one-way tickets at stations, most passengers buy contactless ic smart cards "easycard", which can be used for long-term communication of city buses and short-distance passenger lines; This card is issued by Taipei Smart Card Company, and you can enjoy a one-way fare discount (20% discount) when you take the MRT. In addition, you can also enjoy the time-limited (currently set at one hour) MRT and bus two-way transfer fare concessions (full fare concessions in 8 yuan). In the future, it is planned to replace the old magnetic card equipment with a new contactless ic one-way ticket (token); At present, Shandaosi Station and Guang Lin Station of Xinbeitou Station are selected as pilot stations.

Taipei MRT has a complete barrier-free system, including blind guide bricks, special ticket gates, elevators and wheelchair-specific areas in cars. There is also a waiting area for women at night on the waiting platform to ensure the safety of women returning to take the MRT train at night. In the future, it is planned to set up a female-only carriage. Platform safety: At present, only all stations on Muka Line have installed full-coverage platform screen doors, but it is planned to install platform screen doors in new stations in the future; Some existing stations plan to install semi-closed platform screen doors in taipei main station and Xiao Zhong Fuxing Station, and other stations will install personnel intrusion trajectory detection systems. In addition, since 2004, passengers can ride bicycles in and out of some stations to take the MRT.

English name

At first, in order to cooperate with relevant units, the urban rail transit system was named "MassRapidTransitSystem(MRT)", which is abbreviated as the English translation of MRT. The full name is TaipeiRapidTransitSystem(TRTS). In 2002, when the MRT company revised CIS, it began to call itself "Metropolitan Taipei". However, Taipei MRT is still generally called Taipei MRT; MRT still uses the abbreviation (TRTC) of its official English name (TaipeiRapidTransitCorporation) for the website of the company.
