TAOYUAN (CNA) - The Taoyuan City Construction Management Office announced that it has revised the 'Taoyuan City Construction Site Control Guidelines' to address issues such as noise and pedestrian space constraints caused by urban development. The new regulations, effective June 1st, require construction sites in urban planning areas to provide pedestrian safety corridors with a minimum width of 1.2 meters and height of 2.4 meters, topped with steel plates to prevent falling objects. Fencing within 6 meters of intersections must be made of transparent materials to eliminate blind spots. Furthermore, sites of a certain scale must install 'smart noise boxes' that integrate video recognition, air quality, and noise monitoring, connected 24/7 to the Environmental Protection Bureau. Construction near schools also requires public briefings and coordination of working hours.
