The 1.7 km long former railway\u00a0line crossing downtown Taichung was an important catalyst for the development of the old city. The railway\u2019s historical value plays an important role in the revitalisation of the urban realm on which it sits. Although in the past, the rail line was a mean of connection, the disused railway acts more as a divider due to its challenging location on the dyke, which impedes the circulation from one side of the tracks to the other. The current proposal will reuse the rail line to connect the different parts of the city in a sustainable way by creating a green corridor for biodiversity and including bike\/pedestrian lanes to better cater for the needs of the community.
\nWithin this linear site, the sustainable development\u00a0covered a wide range of planning and design factors including urban regeneration, public participation, historic preservation, green and water resources, and circulation routes for pedestrians and bikes.
\nRelying on Mecanoo<\/strong>\u2019s 30-years urban planning experience, the design will shape a people-oriented green corridor, complementing the Green River\u2019s waterfront.<\/p>
