With the approach of the 2017 Summer Universiade in less than a month, Taipei Rapid Transit Corporation (TRTC) will be releasing a special set of tickets to commemorate this major international sports event.

The commemorative ticket includes 5 tokens carrying the image of the event’s mascot Bravo the bear (each of these tokens are one-day pass), as well as authenticity papers and dedicated number. According to the company, a total of 1,900 sets will be released, and each set is sold for NT$750.
