Station layout[edit]

There seem to be some disagreements on the layout for the station. If you've been to the station, you know that it's not structured like others on the Neihu Line (e.g. entrance at street level, platform elevated). Due to what I can only assume to be space limitations, the concourse level (concourse entrance, ticketing, faregates, etc.) is actually on the fourth floor, one level above the platform level. Stairs/escalators take you up to the fourth floor (where everything is), though the entrance is (understandably) at ground level.

It is verifiable:
1) Through the Metro's own site for Station Layout [1] [2]
2) By looking at photos taken of the station on the Wikimedia Commons page.

  • Access to the platform is from above: [3]
  • Stairs go up from the platform level: [4]
  • The top (fourth) floor is the entry level for the station: [5]

Just wanted to clear this up, since it's an understandable mistake to make. -Multivariable (talk) 09:34, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Here's a Chinese report from the Taipei MRT Newsletter that describes the station layout more clearly: [6] -Multivariable (talk) 09:43, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
