(CNA, Reporter Lu Kang-chun, Hsinchu City, 18th) The "Ci-Yun Road Aerial Pedestrian Walkway Project," which crosses the intersection of Ci-Yun Road and Puding 3rd Road in Hsinchu City, held a joining ceremony today, completing the installation of the final steel beam. It will subsequently connect four surrounding communities, creating a safe and comfortable pedestrian environment.
Mayor Kao Hung-an stated in her speech that the Ci-Yun Sky Bridge is the first landmark node of the Guanpu sky bridge system. She expressed gratitude for the NT$120 million special project subsidy from the Hsinchu Science Park Bureau and commended the city government and construction team for conducting the lifting operations late at night, which significantly reduced the impact on traffic and residents.
Kao Hung-an said that as traffic on Ci-Yun Road continues to increase, she has instructed the Department of Transportation to further review the timing of surrounding traffic signals and traffic flow configurations after the sky bridge is opened, aiming to improve commuting efficiency through a pedestrian-vehicle separation mechanism.
The Public Works Department of the Hsinchu City Government pointed out that the sky bridge uses an "I"-shaped structure, spanning the intersection of Ci-Yun Road and Puding 3rd Road to connect four residential and commercial communities. Following the connection of the steel bridge sections in April, the final steel beam was installed today. Subsequent work will include bridge finishing, installation of electromechanical systems, and landscaping to comprehensively enhance overall pedestrian safety. (Editor: Chen Jen-hua) 1150518
