  • A former civil engineering professor has been sentenced to two years in jail for forgery after he was found to have lied about sending qualified personnel to conduct more than 500 bridge inspections in Yilan County beginning in 2018.

The article from Taipei Times, published on December 15, 2024, discusses the ongoing debate over the potential extension of the Taipei Metro's Circular Line. The extension, which would connect the existing line to new residential and commercial areas, has sparked discussions on funding, environmental impact, and urban planning. Proponents argue that the extension would alleviate traffic congestion and boost economic development in the newly connected regions.

The Taipei City Government is currently evaluating the feasibility study, with public consultations planned to gather community input before making a final decision.
