Last year, Taipei’s Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) stations witnessed a five-year high in injuries on escalators, with 65 incidents recorded, according to Taipei Rapid Transit Corporation (TRTC). Out of these, 61 were caused by walking, while 4 were the result of running. As of September 2023, there have already been 41 walking-related injuries and 3 running-related injuries. The stations with the highest number of injuries in 2022 were Taipei Main Station, Ximen Station, Minquan West Road Station, and Xinpu Station. In response to the high injury numbers, a Taipei City Councilor requested a comprehensive review by the TRTC. The company has been actively promoting safety on its escalators, urging passengers to hold on to handrails and stand firmly on steps. Passengers are also encouraged not to run and to respect other commuters for the sake of order, safety, and courtesy. TRTC emphasized that regular inspections and maintenance of escalator components have shown that the practice of standing on the right and walking on the left does not affect the machinery’s lifespan. The company conducts monthly maintenance checks as required by law, and an inspection agency carries out an annual safety inspection to ensure smooth equipment operation.
