Removed editorial on traffic issues. Just there this year. And traffic was fine

Transportation

[edit]

Every year during the expo period, the roads surrounding the exhibition halls always fall into a state of chaos. The worst part happens around the Taipei City Hall, Keelung Road, and Sinyi Road. When the Taipei Rapid Transit System was still building the Taipei World Trade Center station, it only increased the strain. In which caused several instances that pedestrians crossing the road island, making the local traffic police force very frustrated.

And due to the previous mentioned troubles, the expo have the bad record of it having traffic jams every time there's an expo. Thus, the taxi shifted area, Taipei City Traffic Department and several local mass transit companies re-designed their service routes and re-adjust their prices to accommodate the growing masses while suggesting the visitors to use more of the public transit system.

Remove shuttle bus

[edit]

There is an MRT stop at Nangang so that this is no longer valid

Expo shuttle bus

[edit]

Before the completion of the Taipei Rapid Transit System, the expo shuttle bus only provides rides between the exhibition halls. Then, following the MRT's completion in 2001, the expo shuttle bus also adds the MRT station close by to their route, allowing the visitors to use the shuttle bus for easier access to the expo. Free shuttle buses runs between Xinyi Road venues, Nangang Exhibition Hall, major Taipei Metro MRT stations, selected hotels, and Taoyuan International Airport (TPE).
