Taipei City Government

The Public Transportation Office (PTO) announced adjustments to several public bus routes following the removal of the ramp of Zhongxiao Bridge. The changes will take effect starting February 15.
Initial changes to bus services in the vicinity were implemented starting at 8 AM on February 13 after the dismantling of the ramp. After a two-day observation period, additional changes targeted three buses due to ongoing constructions at the intersection of Zhongxiao West Road and Tacheng Street.
According to plans, the buses 14, 39, and 299 will assume former service routes going from Zhongxiao West Road and taking a left turn on Guanqian Road. In addition, the stop “MRT Beimen Station” for the aforementioned routes will be suspended until further evaluations following the completion of road construction in the vicinity slated for November.
PTO reminds residents to allow extra time for commute when passing through the vicinity of Zhongxiao Bridge, as ongoing constructions will likely slow down surrounding traffic. The agency also encourages the public to take advantage of MRT transfers to avoid road constructions.
