“The two lines will merge at our signature station in Putra Heights and the travel time from this station to KLCC will take about an hour,” said Zulkifli.

He added that the RapidKL LRT service would take delivery of the new trains late next year and would conduct trial runs after that.

good

U agak, berapa ek fee from Putra Height to KL?
i think i can start find job around KL

Very hard to say, as Prasarana has plans for fare revision when the extension opens.

Well, it stops at Puchong, Kinrara, USJ etc.

1 hour? much better than taking ERL+LRT. good job

what you expect? XD like bullet train meh.. .from town to town city to city....

its like few mins 1 stop leh.... then wait for 1 min for the train move again....

damn it... XD

If Putra Heights to KLCC in 1 hour, that means....

40 mins plus can do USJ to KLCC

40 mins plus between Puchong and Masjid Jamek

Stand 1 hour to KL.

Won't be a minute. Dwell time in station will be 20 seconds.

Ampang line will be automatic.

KJ line max speed is 80 km/h.

Speed is not really a factor, because even if you increase speed, the distance between stations are quite close, that any increase of speed will be negligible in reducing time

The only way is skip the stops

thats really long....
drive car also no need so long le...

with that many stops. i think its quite fast.

singapore is even slower

main priority is cost saving. if time is so important, either u drive or leave earlier to reach on time.

a bit dont understand

does they go from kelana jaya to 1U then back to puchong?

No, 1U is different line. That is MRT.

Do not have the mentality of getting into your destination faster,
it is a commute ability that you should appreciate.
As someone that drive from Jalan Semarak to Puchong almost everyday
i welcome such commodity as i rather wake up early than facing Jalan Tun Razak infamous jam everyday.

cheap on the wallet as well.

ok, i get it. so this is the original planning very long ago. they not enough budget last time? lol
saw kelana jaya last line kinda cut off.

Macam mana nak increase speed bai kalau kita negara yang paling obese di Asia Tenggara??

Train berat bai...

nak laju2 nak gi mana ? lol

The idea behind LRT/MRT is to reduce traffic. Not to be faster than driving car. But during rush hour traffic, I think taking LRT/MRT is preferable to driving.

er... consider fast or not????

i'm assuming driving from puchong to klcc is also taking around 45m - 1hr every morning considering the morning traffic.
if u take train, tat would mean saving cost in terms of parking and toll already, besides prolonging the lifetime of your car. that itself is worth the extra time taken by the train.

who knows in the future, gov will buy more train which means higher frequency, faster traveling time.

lol...
1 = 0 0 =1
skejap xmau pandu xkejap mau pandu....
end of the day... lebih baik pandu...

When Seri Kembangan will have one? sigh..

As i said before,
it is the ability to commute that should be appreciate.
Of course standing or maybe sitting in a train during rush hour might not the best wonder about commuting but if you actually want to go from Puchong to Damai for example
that's actually 45-1 hour drive but difference is in your own comfortable car with your own space and etc this is pros but if we start include parking(if not provided) and accident chance(which is quite high if you are not careful in Jalan Tun Razak)

Time isn't an issue but perhaps LRT should well air conditioned to provide maximum public transport comfort.
I can't stress enough about the station since it is public transport after all so everyone have fair and share regarding their nearest station.

did them mentions MRT will take how long to reach at KLCC from sg buloh?

Not exactly as KLCC is not served by that MRT line

Kota Damansara to Bkt Bintang around 30 minutes.

this suggestion should be taken with high consideration
express trains to main stations, if not so many stops also no use because cannot get on!

how many minutes per train ?
at least if wait time is less, then the travel time is justified...

Not really possible, because almost all of the line, only has double track, there is no space for trains to bypass another slower trains.

MRT peak hour: 3.5 minutes

Ampang line peak hour when extension done: 2.5 minutes

Thanks for the update Kampung! I'm waiting until neck also long for the line to be ready. Finally can sleep from Station 13 all the way to work

Bro, I drive from PH to work near KLCC everyday. Morning trip is 1.5 hrs. Going home is 1 hrs 15 minutes. If it rains (and it usually does) it will take about 2 hrs. 1hr is nothing bro.

Yeah!



Cost and time saving bro. Parking and petrol mahal. Travel time will be shorter too. Takes me 1-2 hrs per trip to get to work.

Will both line charge same amt of fare to masjid jamik from putraheights, vice versa?

means roughly, i buy a ticket and walk up already can get a train....
thats good...

now are the cars are longer/higher capacity than the existing cars ?
KL Sentral and few other stations are a mess during peak hours...

Ampang line train will be same capacity as the current one, but it is possible to walk from car 1 to car 6 in new train, unlike the current one.

Possible

hope less sardins now...

kampung, off topic, do u know if there is any plan to increase (somehow) the capacity of kl sentral? with almost all the trains stopping there, it's like a can of packed sardin during peak hour, especially during festive seasons.

Afaik, no. Plan is to connect that building with MRT station.

how about the federal highway bus service (the 1 with special lane...) ?
does it connect to any of the stations ?
or only at subang ?

thankfully they have removed stalls in the middle, which has helped abit, but still i pity some foreigners who always seem lost when they are in the building.

Plan is KTM Subang, maybe Universiti, but it's early to tell

batu 11 la macha

talking on paper Vs practical....

Malaysian mentality... time will proof it.

Putra Heights to USJ also need 20 mins??

Yea.. Kranji station to Marina Bay.. Really long lor..

It's automated and new train order will reflect that requirement

50 sets will operate on future Ampang line. Existing trains will be phased out.

If no LRT.. In future, our commute time will be more or less the same like Brazil Sao Paolo now..

It took people 3 hours just to commute a mere 15KM distance..

Perhaps we can do it peak hour 90 seconds?

Not likely, as Ampang line branches to Putra Heights and then another one to Ampang

Two things....

1) That's one FU ugly ass design.
2) Putra Heights is still a dead place. Won't see it coming up good anytime soon.

Gombak ke kerinchi pun dah 40 min so putra height ke klcc 1jam tu kira logik la.

Complain lambat...drive sendiri...baru tau langit tinggi rendah..nak sampai tol sungai besi pun dah dekat sejam. belum masuk kl lagi tu.

You mean the PH train station platform share for both lines?

Oh.. Okay.. the Ampang line and Puchong line..
Perhaps they should separate these two line..

Btw, Subang line able to do 90 seconds?

This post has been edited by t3arsCulprit: Feb 28 2014, 11:33 AM

Seriously? Ada source tak?

singapore one 20 station about 1 hour ,
this one 26 station about 1 hour is consider fast already

No, no. I mean 90 seconds is not possible on that line, as the line branches out in two separate branches

A) Sentul Timur to Ampang

B) Sentul Timur to Putra Heights

If Puchong section is 90 seconds, then Sentul Timur - Chan Sow line section could have been 45 seconds which is not possible

Kelana Jaya/USJ that one can do 90 seconds.

I read it from a Magazine..
If not mistaken the 3 hours is by public transport not private vehicle..

Cut the time means a more direct route which means KTM Komuter. Get them to buck up then. They are supposed to be the faster 'express' route based on the type of service they are categorised in. But their implementation is a disastrous fail.

Puchong to Masjid Jamek in 40 minutes plus isn't too bad, considering that it goes through Sri Petaling, Sungai Besi, Cheras and Pudu before hitting Masjid Jamek on the Puchong line.

Kampung, what do you think the time would be to travel the ampang line from bandar kinrara giant station to klcc?

For bk station will there be parking area that accesible from bk5 area?

And last question, is masjid jamek interchange station going to be upgraded or improved?

How do you think that's possible when there is a slower train that is stopping at very station in front of you?

Hey Ladies n Gentleman,

You don't need to worry anymore.... how long it takes.... cause it is not happening.. ! There no linkage from LRT extention to KLCC...

Lmao

Taken today

New stations already open?

KJ line is straight to KLCC la, what are you talking about

Seriously rather take uber than sit train. Since uber is dirt cheap anyway

Not sure. But they updated the board

Aper ko merepek nie? Ur picture only shows the extended stations. From Lembah Subang will connect back to the existing Kelana Jaya station.

Cant wait,..driving or taking a bus from putra heights is pain in the arse..i checked if i uses the 30 day discount card,twob way journey would cost me rm8. That's alright

if the fees pergi balik will cost more then 10 ringgit, ppl will hesitate

missed the monthly pass

no direct Puchong > PJ line = fail

look at LDP, same old shiet

Haritu I go explore the LRT Awan Besar-LRT Bandar puteri line. sad to see all shop at the last station. all tutup/chaplap

U change at putra heights right?

That should implacable to someone.
Seriously during rush hour, u take uber go to KL with surge and less car during that time, the cost will make u cry..

And dont praise uber to be efficient since their are less driver now, and able to stuck on traffic together with others car

They should have not build buildings surrounding kl sentral. Leave it for future expansion. Now very pack n not even integrated. Haih

funny la u
the picture shows the extension of kelana jaya line.
after lembah subang is kelana jaya station la bengong.

Tomorrow is the opening day! Finally! Najib officiating summore...

Guys, from Putra Heights to KLCC just connect straight? no need to change?

Yes.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelana_Jaya_Line

berapa lui from Putra Heights to KLCC 1 way

can't wait for try at SS15 tomorrow. hopefully no incidents

Rm5 or more i bet

I think you're gonna be looking at 6-7 one way. Def more than 5.

Still better than driving and circling the parking lot.

Prasarana should release the ticket pricing earlier. Unless they have already?

checked prasarana website.

from putra height to KLCC use cash RM4.80, use tng RM4.10

ok or expensive?

most here guess above RM5

yayyy...opening liao.

Exciting

http://www.myrapid.com.my/media-centre/med...ts-30-june-2016

need to change at ara damansara during peak hour, until jan 2017

If i want to go from Putra Heights to Pasar Seni station? need to change also?

25min lah. Where got 1hr. Puteri to Hang Tuah stn ~48- 50min.

Unless u mean technical error?

No need

They should mention the key buildings/attractions at each station on the map. Easier for tourists to navigate

1 hour for the trip. How bout walking distance to your station, and waiting time for lrt arrival and getting out from station to your final destination.
