The KL Monorail Line four-car trains, which have been grounded since May for further enhancement of their safety features, will be returning to service soon.
In a statement issued today (19 Sept 2017), Rapid Rail Sdn Bhd Chief Executive Officer, Dato’ Ir. Zohari Sulaiman said that the five four-car monorail train sets would be injected into service in stages by this year end.
“Works to further enhance the safety features of the trains are on-going. We are working hard to have the works completed as soon as possible; but strictly according to the work details that we had highlighted to them.
“As the operator of the KL Monorail Line, Rapid Rail would like to express our sincere apology to our customers for the inconvenience caused by the absence of the four-car train sets. We have no choice, but to ground them temporarily in the interest of public safety,” Zohari said.
In the absence of the four-car train sets, Zohari said Rapid Rail has been deploying shuttle buses throughout the alignment to complement the operations of the two-car trains.
“We now have six sets of 2-car trains in operations,” he said, adding that train frequency will be on the average of between eight and 15 minutes, depending on the service hours and availability of trains.
