To promote the "Yield to Pedestrians" campaign, the Taipei City Government has designated the Xinyi Planning District as a demonstration area and is piloting "Pedestrian Safety Reflective Facilities." These include "Caution: Children" fluorescent signs, "Pedestrians First" fluorescent signs, "Bus Rear Body Reflective Markers," "Pedestrian Barrier Reflective Markers," and "Crosswalk Reflective Lines." The goal is to use these reflective facilities to emphasize that pedestrians in Taipei deserve safer road spaces.
To enhance the visibility of pedestrian safety facilities, 3M Taiwan has also taken action by donating multiple high-reflectivity items. They selected 150 buses operating within the Xinyi Planning District to have reflective markers affixed to their rear bodies, reminding drivers to maintain a safe distance from buses. Additionally, on pedestrian-bicycle shared pathways around the Taipei City Hall, 21 "Pedestrians First" fluorescent signs have been installed to remind cyclists to yield to pedestrians. Around Xinyi and Bo'ai Elementary Schools, 8 "Caution: Children" fluorescent signs have been placed to alert drivers to slow down and stay vigilant when approaching schools.
Furthermore, reflective markers have been applied to 176 pedestrian barriers on busier sidewalks in the Xinyi Planning District and around the Taipei World Trade Center exhibition halls, improving nighttime pedestrian safety and encouraging drivers to maintain safe distances when turning. At five intersections with high pedestrian crossing volumes in the area, reflective lines have been added to both sides of the crosswalks to enhance reflectivity during rainy weather and remind drivers to reduce speed when approaching crosswalks at night.
Additionally, 3M Taiwan has donated 3,300 reflective vests for use by traffic volunteers, crossing guards, and security personnel around parking lots in the Xinyi Planning District, increasing the visibility of traffic assistants during duty to ensure their safety.
