Taichung drivers: Move cars from red/yellow lines by 7 a.m. after typhoon

Taichung city authorities are reminding residents that temporary parking arrangements made during Typhoon Bawei are now concluded. Vehicle owners who parked on designated red or yellow lines must move their cars by 7 a.m. on Friday, July 12.

The city had permitted parking on roads wider than 15 meters and specific sections of Huanzhong Road for typhoon preparedness. This measure, along with a suspension of roadside parking fees, was implemented to alleviate parking difficulties during the storm. With the typhoon moving away and normal work and school schedules resuming for most of the city, these special arrangements have been lifted.

Normal operations have resumed across the city's transportation network. Roadside parking meters are now charging fees again, and public bus services, including shuttle buses, are running on their regular schedules. The Taichung Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) system is also operating with its standard service frequency.

Additionally, the YouBike public bicycle sharing system has returned to normal operations as of midnight on Friday. Residents are urged to comply with the 7 a.m. deadline to remove vehicles from the temporarily permitted red and yellow line parking areas to avoid any issues.
