Liow, who is here with the Prime Minister, said India held the edge in the bid to redevelop the 83km Port Klang-Seremban line.

Under the project estimated at between RM4bil and RM6bil, tracks for freight will be built to bypass KL Sentral, where most of the country’s rail traffic converges to create a bottleneck.

“This will de-congest the heart of the Klang Valley, with cargo going direct to Port Klang.

“We will also halve the KTM Komuter frequency to 3.5 minutes,’’ said Liow, who held talks with India’s Minister of Railways Suresh Prabhu here on Friday.

It will be too much hassle to load and unload for a short distance like this.

If the existing cargo traffic to Port Klang is already using train (through Klang VAlley), it will not cause any congestion.

Why india is in this?

I believe with this and the mrt 3, if we can confirm both, the puzzle is nearly complete
we can hope for a reliable ktm, with massive mrt/lrt network.
