PETALING JAYA: An additional 300 new vans have been procured under the Rapid Bus Demand Responsive Transit (DRT) to provide an affordable service and improve first and last mile connectivity in the Klang Valley and Penang, says Prasarana Malaysia Berhad.

Its president and group chief executive Mohd Azharuddin Mat Sah said the vans provide users with an alternative transportation method alongside supplementing the existing fleet of buses operated by Rapid Bus.
