KUALA LUMPUR: MRT commuters could barely contain their excitement as the clock ticked close to 3pm as groups of people crowded around the 12 new MRT stations that opened for service. People with disabilities (PWDs) are glad they can now travel beyond their residential areas through the MRT network, which is optimised to be as barrier-free as possible.
Kepong Beautiful Gate Foundation for the Disabled coordinator, Kenneth Thien, is glad that stations along the Putrajaya MRT line are PWD-friendly.
