Train frequency on LRT Kelana Jaya line back to normal after 2pm: Rapid Rail


PETALING JAYA: The LRT Kelana Jaya line is set to resume normal train frequency after 2pm Tuesday (May 10), says Rapid Rail Sdn Bhd.

In a statement, it said disruptions along the line were caused by a stranded train with a brake problem at the Taman Jaya station.

“For now, efforts to move the stranded train are under way by our engineers with the process expected to be complete by 2pm.

“Services should also resume at a normal frequency following that,” said chief executive officer Amir Hamdan.

He also apologised to users who experienced delays in heading to their workplaces and destinations in the morning.

“Investigations will be carried out to identify the exact cause of the incident.

“This will ensure such incidents can be avoided in the future,” he said.

The 8.16am incident left only one track in use from the Taman Bahagia to Taman Jaya stations.

Operators then had to activate an alternative plan where passengers coming from Gombak and Putra Heights had to disembark at the Asia Jaya LRT station and hop on the next train to continue their journey.

Users are advised to get the latest updates on the situation through Rapid KL social media platforms.
