Track switch repairs causes delays on Kelana Jaya LRT line


KUALA LUMPUR: Commuters on the Kelana Jaya LRT Line are experiencing delays between the Pasar Seni and Bangsar stations as repair work on the track switch system continues.

Rapid KL, in a statement on Facebook, explained that trains are being manually operated along the affected stretch and will move at a reduced speed while technical teams work to resolve the issue.

"Our technical team continues to work tirelessly to resolve the issue. Please follow the instructions of station staff for further assistance," the statement read.

Passengers are also advised to consider alternative travel options where possible.

The statement has sparked a wave of responses online, with many netizens complaining about being late for work and calling for a more efficient contingency plan.

Some suggested that Rapid KL provide Bas Perantara (feeder buses) to help ease congestion and ensure smoother connectivity during the disruption.

Others expressed frustration that no immediate alternative was in place despite similar breakdowns having occurred in the past.

Rapid KL apologised for the inconvenience and thanked passengers for their patience and understanding.
