In view of the temporary unavailability of the four-car trains, Rapid KL has deployed shuttle bus services to buttress service along the monorail line for the convenience of commuters. 

Fare is RM1 per trip with a headway of 15 minutes, subject to traffic conditions.

The bus service will commence daily from 7am to 10pm daily.

Only two-car train sets were currently in service, providing a headway of 13 minutes.
