Gridlock at LRT stations

Commuters were forced to queue behind the ticket barrier to avoid overcrowding the underground KLCC station.

LRT commuters heading home from the city centre are experiencing overcrowded coaches, especially in high traffic areas such as the Kuala Lumpur City Centre (KLCC) station.

Following the completion of the Kelana Jaya and Sri Petaling LRT line extension projects, StarMetro reported on Tuesday that things were running smoothly from Asia Jaya and Taman Jaya LRT stations to the city centre during the morning peak hours, but not when commuters were returning from the city centre.
