Due to the changes of passenger flow during the on-going Movement Control Order period, both Rapid KL and Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB) have decided to implement some changes to the frequencies of their train services. All these changes will take place from tomorrow until the end of MCO on 31 March 2020.
For Rapid KL, the frequency of their train services has now been set to 10 minutes. Applicable even during weekend, the new setup applies to all type of Rapid KL trains including LRT (Kelana Jaya, Sri Petaling, and Ampang Lines), Monorail, and MRT:
