According to Japanese media reports, in order to solve the increasingly severe traffic congestion problem around the Kumamoto First Stainless Steel Plant in Taiwan, Japan, the Kumamoto Prefecture government recently held two key basic facility projects at the Prefecture Technical Short-term University in Haramizu, Kikumachi, local. These two projects are carried out by Kumamoto Prefecture as the main body of the business, with the goal of improving local transportation conditions and improving regional connectivity, with the goal of completing in 2028.
According to reports from Kumamoto Hiri News, the project of this operation covers two major directions, focusing on the traffic pressure on Otsu Uegi Line in Kumamoto Prefecture and its surrounding areas. First, the multi-line project was implemented on the Otsu-Eui wood line in Kumamoto Prefecture. Since this prefecture road just goes to the south side of the Taiwan-Electric Kumamoto First Crystal Round, through the expansion of the road project, the vehicle traffic capacity of the line will be effectively improved.
Secondly, it is a new important contact channel that will connect to the "Zhongjiu Shuo Road" area expressway that is currently being installed. This newly designed contact channel is expected to divert the vehicle and improve the entry and exit efficiency of the industrial area. The Kumamoto Prefecture government said it is leading the construction of the two road projects and is expected to be completed in 2028.
reported that after the completion of the NTI Kumamoto First Crystal Factory, it brought significant economic and population impacts to Kikumachi and its surrounding areas. According to the population dynamic survey in Kumamoto Prefecture, the total population of 6 cities and villages has increased, especially around Kikumatsu, where Taitung Electric Power is located, with a particularly high population growth rate. However, with the gathering of semiconductor industry chains, traffic congestion problems have quickly become the main challenge faced by local residents and uneasiness factors in life.
In fact, the seriousness of traffic problems has directly affected the expansion plan of Taiwan Electricity itself. Taiwan Electric Chairman Wei Zhejia once pointed out that "traffic problems" are one of the reasons why Kumamoto's second crystal delayed its work. In addition, local residents have expressed their inability to tolerate the current traffic conditions. Faced with traffic difficulties, local governments and the people are also looking for solutions. For example, middle school students in Kikuya-cho and Otsu-cho once held a resident meeting to brainstorm, and proposed specific traffic solutions such as adding bus location information to the application.
Instructors emphasized that the start of the new construction project of multiple roads and contact roads in the prefecture shows the Kumamoto government's determination to pose traffic pressures caused by high-tech industries. By improving the main contact roads and new fast tracks, the purpose is to balance the economic benefits brought by the platform electricity, and to ensure the daily quality of local residents, and further ensure the sustainable development of the region. After the construction of these basic facilities is completed, it is expected to significantly solve the traffic challenges around Kumamoto's semiconductor industry and provide a more stable transportation foundation for future industrial development.
