Posted on 2026-09-28 17:30:14
A new tunnel linking Taipei's Zhongxiao East Road with the National Biotechnology Research Park in Nangang District opened today.
The 824-meter Shengji Tunnel is expected to ease traffic on Zhongxiao East Road and Academia Road, while cutting travel time between the park and Nangang Station to less than 10 minutes during peak hours.
The central government spent nearly $1.9 billion NT on the project.
The tunnel also provides an alternative route during emergencies, such as flooding, and includes a separate path for pedestrians and cyclists.
More than 26-hundred researchers and other professionals now work at the biotechnology park, which opened in 2018.
