Fuxing Road (also called 11th Ave.) is a major arterial in Taipei connecting the Daan District and the National Taiwan University in the south with the Zhongzheng, Zhongshan, and Songshan districts around the northern terminus. Most of the Taipei MRT's Muzha Line runs above Fuxing Road, with provisions along the road for the line's extension to Neihu. In November 2006, Taipei City opened up a new section of Fuxing Road between Minzu E. Road and the Dazhi Bridge, providing people a new connection between Dazhi and central Taipei without having to drive around Songshan Airport. The new connection is a four-lane tunnel travelling under Songshan Airport and is restricted to motorized vheicles only (no motorbikes). Fuxing Road is divided into north and south sections by Zhongxiao E. Road, as is with most north-south arterials in Taipei. The southern section is divided into two numbered sections, while surprisingly, the northern section is not divided into numbered sections. Fuxing Road is also known for the many elaborate shopping malls located along the road, such as the Taipei SOGO, the Breeze Center, the Sunrise Department Store, and many more.
