Taoyuan Rail Transit (officially Taoyuan Mass Rapid Transit System) is a proposed rapid transit system for the Taoyuan area in Taiwan.[1] The proposed network will consist of five lines. A section of Blue Line has merged into the Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport Access MRT System and is under construction, while the surplus is still in planning phase.
