Ampang, Sri Petaling lines fully resume after power disruption


KUALA LUMPUR: Services on the Ampang/Sri Petaling Line fully resumed at 5.52pm on Thursday (April 2) following a power supply disruption between the Awan Besar and Sri Petaling stations.

Rapid Rail Sdn Bhd (Rapid Rail) said train frequency is being gradually normalised following the incident, which began at 11.38am and involved a train number-29 that lost power at the Bukit Jalil station.

"Station staff and auxiliary police personnel were also deployed to the affected areas to manage passenger flow and ensure the situation remained under control throughout the disruption," it said in a statement.

Rapid Rail said its operations team will continue to monitor the situation to ensure smooth services, with auxiliary police and station staff still stationed at platforms and concourse areas of affected stations.
