Nangang (Chinese:南港;pinyin:Nángǎng) is a railway and metro station inTaipei, Taiwan served byTaiwan High Speed Rail,Taiwan Railways Administration andTaipei Metro.[11] The station is served by the fastest HSR express services of the1 series.
Nangang Station was originally built during theJapanese rule of Taiwan in 1899 to support local industries and the growing population. Since then, the station has been upgraded three times to support tremendous growth: in 1905, in 1966 (due to theKMT moving theROC government to Taiwan), and in 1986–1987 (to accommodate increased passenger traffic and new cargo traffic).
As with most urban train stations inTaipei, Nangang Station was converted from a surface station to an underground station as part of theTRA'sTaipei Railway Underground Project, an effort to move existing surface railways fromSongshan Station to east of Nangang Station underground to accommodate growing traffic and economic development inNankang Software Park. Existing TRA platforms were successfully moved underground on 21 September 2008. The 7.6-km tunnel project costNT$76.5 billion.[12] Thehigh-speed rail extension to the station opened for service in 2016.[13]
The new station is similar to the then-newBanqiao Station inNew Taipei, which was reconstructed to accommodate underground platforms andmixed-use development on the existing station site. The two-level, underground station levels accommodate expanded TRA platforms, newTHSR platforms, and new MRT platforms for theBannan line which was opened on 25 December 2008. It served as the eastern terminal untilTaipei Nangang Exhibition Center Bannan Line platform opened in 2011. On 3 January 2010, Exits 3 and 4 for metro station were closed for construction of a passageway with the TRA station.[14] The entire project was completed in February 2011. Platform screen doors were installed on the Nangang line platforms in August 2015.
The design of the Taipei Metro portion of the station centers around a "Nostalgia and Technology" theme with aqua green selected to signify an image of a fish pond. Paintings by artistJimmy Liao are displayed around the station including on the platform walls. Many areas havesandblasted glass installed.[15] On the platform, a piece titled "Rapid Transit Platform, the Transport Dock" displays images on benches to evoke memories of former industries in Nangang.[16]
