The progress of the project up to December 31 2011 is shown in the table below.
The “Monthly Statistics of Transportation and Communications Republic of China” published by Ministry of Transportation and Communications shows that up to the end of Nov, 2011, there are up to 2,036,119 motorized vehicles registered in Tainan City. On top of that, the merging of Tainan City and County on Oct 25, 2010 resulted in a more extensive transportation network throughout the entire Tainan City. The number of cars coming in and going out is considerable, and so is the air pollution that comes with them.
The Environmental Protection Bureau of Tainan City is in charge to carry out the control policies handed down by the Environmental Protection Administration, and develops a series of plans including integrated maintenance and inspection for diesel-fueled vehicles, establishment of battery charging stations for electric motorcycles, retirement of 2-stroke motorcycles, and subsidies and sweepstakes for promotion of electric motorcycles. The Bureau hopes to improve the citizen’s idea about the pollution coming from the car exhausts through the promotion of this project, allowing disqualified diesel vehicles to report for maintenance and inspection for better air quality. For low-pollution vehicles, the Bureau would like to encourage the retirement of old, 2-stroke motorcycles and replacement with electric motorcycles, while safe and convenient battery charging station network is provided. Also, promotional posters and news release are made to for promotion of pollution improvement policies and give our good citizens a clean Tainan.
