Provincial Highway 12, named as Taiwan Boulevard (台灣大道) for its entire length, is a 23.2 km[1] east–west highway that connects Port of Taichung in Wuqi with downtown Taichung City.

Highway 12 is one of the major thoroughfares of Taichung, connecting the historic downtown at Central District with its newer central business district in Xitun District. The road is also one of three that connect to National freeway 1 in Xitun. Between 2014 and 2015, the Taichung BRT ran on Highway 12 between Taichung railway station and Providence University in Shalu District, and there are plans to build a metro line at the BRT system's former course.[2][3]
