I. Purpose of Traffic Signal Installation

To address traffic safety risks at the intersections around General Building II and the cafeteria, where vehicle, pedestrian, and campus shuttle bus routes intersect during peak hours, traffic signals will be installed in this area.

The traffic signals will regulate the movement of vehicles and pedestrians by separating their passage according to designated signal phases, allowing vehicles and pedestrians to pass through the intersections at different times in accordance with the signals.

This project is not simply an installation of additional traffic signals. It is part of an overall improvement project covering the outdoor stage area near the cafeteria, the Auditorium, pedestrian walkways around General Building II, and accessible routes. The campus traffic environment has been comprehensively reviewed, including the movement of vehicles, pedestrians, campus shuttle buses, and accessible transportation, in order to enhance overall campus traffic safety and improve the quality of campus mobility.

II. Traffic Signal Operation and Traffic Control Measures

(1) Scheduled Implementation

The traffic signals are expected to be officially activated after the start of the new semester.

(2) Daily Control Periods

Traffic control is expected to be implemented during the midday and evening peak hours on regular working and class days. The control periods will be reviewed and adjusted based on actual traffic conditions.

(3) Vehicle and Pedestrian Movement

The traffic signals will regulate traffic by separating vehicle and pedestrian movement according to designated signal phases.

Pedestrians must follow the pedestrian signals, while vehicles must follow the vehicle signals. Vehicles and pedestrians will be prevented from entering the intersection simultaneously in order to reduce conflicts between vehicles and pedestrians and lower the risk of traffic accidents.

(4) Observation and Review During the Initial Implementation Period

During the initial period after the traffic signals are activated, actual vehicle and pedestrian flows, pedestrian movement, and signal operation will be continuously monitored.

Particular attention will be paid to potential traffic congestion during the midday peak period, pedestrian safety, and the effectiveness of the traffic signal operation. The traffic control measures will be reviewed and adjusted as necessary according to actual on-site traffic conditions, with the goal of maintaining both pedestrian safety and smooth traffic flow.

(5) Future Review of Campus Shuttle Bus Stops

If actual observations indicate that adjustments to the current campus shuttle bus stop arrangements are necessary, the University will further evaluate the locations and traffic routes of the shuttle bus stops in order to maintain campus traffic safety and smooth traffic flow.

III. Overall Improvement Objectives

After the traffic signals are activated, actual traffic conditions will continue to be monitored and reviewed. Based on operational results, relevant traffic control measures will be adjusted as necessary, including signal timing, control periods, and traffic routes.

These measures are intended to balance pedestrian safety, smooth traffic flow, and the overall transportation needs of the campus, thereby progressively improving campus traffic safety and the quality of campus mobility.
