  • A road widening project on Liufeng Road in Taiwan's Wufeng District is nearing completion.
  • The project, costing approximately NT$150 million, will widen the road from 5 meters to 10 meters.
  • Improvements aim to enhance traffic flow and pedestrian safety for access to industrial zones and universities.

A significant road improvement project in Taiwan's Wufeng District is nearing its final stages. The widening of Liufeng Road, a crucial artery connecting the Wufeng Industrial Zone and Asia University, is set to enhance local infrastructure. The project involved an investment of approximately NT$150 million (US$4.6 million).

Previously, Liufeng Road measured only 5 meters wide, creating difficulties for vehicles passing each other and insufficient space for pedestrians. The construction, managed by the Taichung City Government's Construction Bureau, has expanded the road to 10 meters. This expansion is expected to significantly improve traffic efficiency and pedestrian safety for residents, students, and workers accessing the industrial park and the university.

The project encompasses the section of Liufeng Road from Wugong 8th Road to Provincial Highway 74. Its completion is anticipated to ease congestion and provide a safer environment for all road users in the densely populated and economically active area of Wufeng District.
