NOISE disturbance, excessive vibration and flooding during downpours are some of the problems faced by residents in Jalan Cumarasami, Kuala Lumpur, since construction began on a traction power substation (TPSS) near the neighbourhood.

Resident Michael Onn said their misery began with the demolition of the two-storey building at the site in 2017 to make way for the TPSS as part of the MRT project.
