The CEPD has amended its "Plan for Future Development at the Port of Taipei," increasing the number of wharves at its First Container Center from six to seven and the size of the container ships that they can handle from 5000 to 8000 TEUs (twenty-foot equivalent units). To meet demand, there will also be a two-stage development of wharves in its southern district.
