The
So the company applied for planning permission to build a 200 metre (219 yard) bridge across the main road.
The bridge had to be equipped with an AMHS (Automatic Manufacturing Handling System) to transport the pods containing the wafers from Phase 4 to Phases 1,2, 3 and back again.
OK, said the local planning authority, TSMC could have its bridge but it had to build a public path along the bridge.
This must be the first time in history that the general public has got unfettered access to a construction which contains a working fab area.
I assume the public footpath will be OUTSIDE the clean production area - it would not be difficult to arrange, would it.
Pictures please!
Luke, I'll ask TSMC
