[Reporter Yang Xinhui/Taipei Report] In order to remove the label of "Pedestrian Hell", the Taipei Municipal Bureau of Transportation plans to cancel the motorcycle signs on the first and second sections of Ren'ai Road and the sidewalk of Dunhua North Road in March. The corner is used for parking and the sidewalk is cleared. If the trial is successful, it will be extended to the whole city. In the future, motorcycles will gradually withdraw from the sidewalk.

Jiang Wanan said that he attaches great importance to the improvement of sidewalks and the safety of passers-by, but he will take into account both the safety of pedestrians and the rights and interests of motorcyclists. He hopes that the traffic policy will make the citizens change.

In December last year, CNN reported that Taiwan is a pedestrian hell. Later, some netizens posted photos of the dangerous sidewalk in Lane 18, Lane 222, Dunhua North Road on the American forum "Reddit". When going to school, people and cars were forced to fight for the road. After Jiang Wanan learned about it, he sent personnel to conduct an on-site survey and put forward a plan, and announced that he would give priority to dealing with the problem of incoherent marked sidewalks around the school.
