Taiwan urban development and infrastructure expansion

Overview

Urban development and infrastructure projects are expanding across several major cities in Taiwan.

In northern Taiwan, Keelung is advancing its MRT project, with preliminary works surpassing 40% completion and the Keelung Smart Technology Park entering the urban planning review stage. New Taipei City is focusing on long-term transit expansion, aiming to reach 189 kilometers and 182 stations by 2035 to connect Keelung, Taipei, and Taoyuan.

Meanwhile, New Taipei City has outlined a 10-year plan to transition its infrastructure into a ‘4-ring, 8-line, 4-hub’ system centered on four major metropolitan hubs to drive urban renewal and social housing development.
