Taro News reported that “after the Ministry of Transportation reviewed and approved the revised plan, the Kaohsiung City Government now says the full line will open in 2034. The partial opening of sections Y1 to Y5 and Y5 to Y18 (from the depot area to the Weiwuying district) could occur in 2032.”
The redevelopment of Kaohsiung’s waterfront moves away from port-heavy industrial land use to a mixed waterfront district integrating corporate R&D, finance, culture, and public space; a 20-year transition, implemented in defined steps.
