1. Priority seat for visually-impaired passengers

Four priority seats for visually-impaired passengers were installed at platforms of Zhongxiao Fuxing Station (Bannan Line and Wenhu Line) on April 4, 2012 for a trial basis. The seat located at the first door of the lead carriage of the station platform helps station staff and train drivers to easily identify visually-impaired passengers requiring special assistance and allows visually-impaired passengers to rest while waiting for station staff to arrive and guide them to the station's exit. If the trial proves successful, such seats will be installed in the near future at other transfer stations and some stations where train services have longer headway.
 

2. Indicator Light for the Hearing Impaired

Indicator lights for the hearing impaired are located on the concourse and platform levels of Taipei Main Station. In case of an emergency, the light will flash to alert hearing impaired passengers to leave the station immediately.

3. Audio Instruction System

An audio instruction system for the visually impaired was installed at Exit 1 of Shuanglian Station in June 2010. The system is a wireless intercom that includes wireless receiver, image transmission, a public-address system and service button. When a person carrying a transmitter walks within 5 meters of the device, a pre-recorded message will be broadcast, announcing: "Here is Exit 1 of Shuanglian Station. For assistance, please press the service button."
