However, the Taiwan Railways Administration (TRA) has not yet officially announced the results. TRA today discreetly stated that the case is still under procedure and there is no related response.
Taipei Main Station is located at the core transportation hub of the capital, bringing together transportation systems such as TRA, High-Speed Rail, MRT, Airport MRT, national highways, and city buses. It sees a daily flow of over 600,000 people, and there are also multiple major development projects in the surrounding area.

TRA announced the tender in mid-January this year, with the bid deadline on March 20, and results originally scheduled to be announced by the end of April.
