ECRL revival to spur economic recovery along East Coast


BENTONG: The revival of the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) Genting Tunnel project here is set to act as a catalyst in the post-Covid-19 economic recovery along the East Coast region in Peninsular Malaysia, said MCA spokesperson Wong Siew Mun.

She said when the ECRL Bentong station opens along Section C2 of the ECRL, it will reduce traffic congestion and travel time between the East and West coasts of the peninsula.
