As summer temperatures soar, Taipei City has implemented a measure to reduce waiting time at traffic lights, particularly for motorcyclists who are more sensitive to the heat. With the initiative to combat the unbearable 'heat island effect,' Taipei's Transportation Department has shortened the red light intervals at 740 intersections starting July 1st. The adjustment averages a 21-second reduction, with some locations seeing a maximum of 90 seconds cut, receiving praise from netizens.
