Rapid Rail said this had resulted in just two out of five trains being operational at present.

“Since Jan 27, a total of five trains have been used between these two stations,” it said in a statement today.

“Due to the structural and track damage near the Bandaraya station, these trains cannot return to the LRT depot in Ampang for maintenance work.

“Three of the five trains had to be removed because they no longer met the operational criteria.”

As such, a total of 10 shuttle bus services between the Sentul Timur and Bandaraya stations were activated during the peak period this evening to accommodate and handle affected passengers.

The statement added that the shuttle buses would stop at the Sentul Timur, Sentul, Titiwangsa, PWTC, Sultan Ismail and Bandaraya stations, with the one-way journey from Sentul Timur to Bandaraya expected to take 30 minutes.
