dc.description.abstract | Taoyuan City has planned a blueprint for the construction of common pipelines of 1,591 kilometers, and has developed an implementation plan to construct common pipelines. However, it still faces many problems to be solved in practice. Thus, this study aims to explore the current status and difficulties of the common pipeline construction in Taoyuan City through reviewing relevant regulations, planning reports and improvement-awaited items proposed by pipeline dealers, and to identify feasible promotion strategies through expert interviews. Then the common pipeline construction can be carried out smoothly during the construction phase and the maximum benefits can be exerted during the use phase to enhance the government’s efficiency and efficacy as well as consider the perspectiveness for future management.
By revising the Administration Regulation for The Common Pipelines, pipeline institutions that did not share the common pipeline construction expenses can be allowed to pay usage fee for using the common pipeline. Meanwhile, cable type common pipelines can be charged according to the regulation for broadband pipeline usage fee. Both are feasible ways of increasing the usage rate of common pipelines. In addition, it is also a feasible strategy to promote the common pipeline construction mainly based on supply pipes and to set up a dedicated organization and increase funds.
The common pipeline construction is greatly affected by whether regulations are sound and whether resources are invested. In the short term, it is recommended to revise the Administration Regulation for The Common Pipelines and set up a dedicated organization; in the long run, rolling reviews and revision of related common pipeline regulations are necessary and sufficient funds should be budgeted annually to have good common pipeline construction. | en_US |
