MRT Circle Line Entrance to Open at Banqiao Station
Posted on 2025-03-14 18:27:13
A new entrance for the Circular Line at Banqiao Station has been approved and will be built near the East 1 entrance of Banqiao Railway Station.
According to the New Taipei Department of Rapid Transit Systems, the new access point once completed will halve transfer walking time from 12 minutes to just 5 minutes, benefitting some 30-thousand commuters daily.
Banqiao Station is a key transportation hub connecting Taiwan Railways, Taiwan High-Speed Rail, the Taipei MRT Bannan Line, and the Circular Line.
But passengers say the current underground passageways are confusing and inefficient.
Metro officials say the new entrance will be a three-story structure equipped with elevators and escalators to improve accessibility.
