KUALA LUMPUR:
Keretapi Tanah Melayu Bhd (KTMB) will carry out upgrading works to its signalling system along the route between Kepong Station and Salak Selatan Station from Saturday to June 2.

There will be adjustments to the timetables for KTM Komuter services in the Klang Valley and electric train services (ETS) during the period.

KTM Komuter services on the Pulau Sebang-Batu Caves-Pulau Sebang, and Tanjung Malim-KL Sentral-Tanjung Malim routes, as well as ETS services are expected to see delays of up to 50 minutes from their original schedules.

In addition, two ETS services – EG9425 (Padang Besar to Segamat) and EG9321 (Butterworth to Segamat) – will have platform changes at the KL Sentral and Kuala Lumpur Stations, but only on May 31.

“Officers will be on duty at the stations to guide and assist passengers to the correct platforms,” it said.

Previously, KTMB postponed the upgrading works to ensure smooth travel for passengers in the Klang Valley during the 46th Asean Summit.

This was after the closure of several major roads in the Klang Valley, and the government’s recommendation for the rakyat to use public transport to ease traffic congestion.
