KUALA LUMPUR: Transport minister Loke Siew Fook has told commuters to expect disruptions on the Kelana Jaya LRT line in the coming months.
At a press conference here, Loke apologised to Malaysians, saying these disruptions are expected to continue all the way to the third quarter of 2023.
“We are doing everything we can to make sure these disruptions do not happen frequently.
“As of now, our services are not fully stable and I’m sorry for that,” he said.
Loke said there were 56 LRT train sets for the Kelana Jaya line, of which 18 are under maintenance, meaning that only 38 are currently being used.
He said this was why train frequency has been at five minutes lately, even during peak hours.
Once the 18 trains are back in service, the intervals between trains will be reduced to three minutes, he said.-FMT
