Summary | After the completion of the freeway and expressway network and the opeation of high-speed rail, land transportation in Taiwan has been changing greatly. These changes do not only advance Taiwan’s land transportation system to reach 300km per hour, but also make Taiwan become a one-day living circle. In addition, with the application of advanced electronic technologies, the ETC system has implemented on the national freeway system since 2006. Many transportation demand management applications, such as differential toll charging, can be practiced in the future. During this period of major changes, the impacts on the supply and management of intercity transportation are tremendous. Facing the transformation, the Transportation Whitebook and studies on integrated transportation planning, published by the MOTC and the IOT periodically in the past, can not satisfy the needs in many aspects. Therefore, it is necessary to collect, observe, compare and analyze the change data in intercity transportation system and to develop forward-looking integrated transportation strategies, during the three-year period before and after the operation of high-speed rail. This report summarizes the second-year study work of the three-year project. The emphases in the second year are to: (1) continue collecting and observing the intercity transportation characteristics and travelers demand data (2) investigate and analyze intercity transportation development issues and policy directions (3) compile an intercity transportation observation report and (4) continue to set up an intercity transportation database and display system. |
