The Taichung MRT is a rapid transit system currently being planned by the city government of Taichung, Taiwan (Republic of China).

History

Planning of the Taichung MRT started in 1990 with a study conducted by the Taiwanese Bureau of Housing and Urban Development. The study was completed in 1998 and suggested the implementation of three routes. The project was formally approved by the Executive Yuan of the ROC government on November 23, 2004.

Construction of the first line (green) had been paid for and was expected to begin in October 2007, though it has been delayed indefinitely. As of 2008, the green line is scheduled for completion by 2012, though whether this target date will be met is uncertain.fact|date=April 2008

Routes

Three lines (red, green, blue) are currently included in the preliminary plan of the system. The green line (Wuri-Beitun), which is scheduled to be constructed first, will be about 16.5 km long and will include 15 stations and a depot. It will stretch from Songzhu Road in Beitun district of Taichung along Beitun Road, Wenxin Road, and Wenxin South Road to the High Speed Rail Station in the township of Wurih in Taichung County.
