Pedestrian crossings are being adjusted. Crosswalks are being set slightly farther back from intersections, and striped markings are being re-angled so drivers can see pedestrians earlier as they approach.

Foxconn will invest NT$15.9 billion (US$509.94 million) to build its Kaohsiung headquarters in southern Taiwan. That would include a mixed-use commercial and office building and a residential tower, it said. Construction is scheduled to start in 2027, with completion targeted for 2033.

According to Sun Jen Textile, manufacturing seven towels removes one kilogram of abandoned fishing nets from Taiwan’s surrounding waters.

Y4 Chang Gung Memorial Hospital Station (長庚醫院站) will include a direct underground passageway to the hospital’s B1 level. Riders will be able to exit the station and reach the medical campus without crossing traffic or being exposed to weather conditions.

Structural work and exterior walls are largely complete, and the store is scheduled to open in mid-2026, replacing Costco’s existing Kaohsiung founding location.

“Construction of the main tower at the Fubon Aozidi Development (富邦凹子底開發案) has reached 45 floors, leaving only the final two levels toward its full 47-story design.”

The design-build project, now underway, is scheduled for completion in December 2026. It covers a full upgrade of the Cijin Beach core area and extensive improvements along the surrounding coastline, marking a major milestone in Kaohsiung’s effort to elevate its coastal tourism infrastructure.

Chiu said that if elected mayor, she would construct a levee-top expressway running parallel to the Gaoping River (高屏溪堤岸), forming the backbone of a proposed “30-minute Greater Kaohsiung Living Circle.” The corridor would link Kaohsiung (高雄), Pingtung (屏東), and Tainan (台南) into a unified “Southern Taiwan Metropolitan Region.”

The Hequn (合群) and Jianye (建業) villages are areas long recognized as the largest surviving cluster of naval dependents’ housing in Taiwan. Much of the district dates back to the late 1940s and 1950s, when thousands of military families settled in Zuoying following the KMT’s relocation to Taiwan.

The Taiwan High Speed Rail extension to Pingtung will enter Kaohsiung Main Station then cross the Gaoping River to Liukuaicuo. The earliest full opening is targeted for 2039 and staged service is being assessed.
