PETALING JAYA (Bernama): The Prasarana Group is increasing the train frequency of the Kelana Jaya Light Rail Transit (LRT) for the route between Gombak and Ara Damansara stations from this Jan 2. Rapid Rail chief operating officer Khairani Mohamed said the train frequency of the LRT train service between the two stations would be increased from 7.30am to 9am every day from Monday to Friday to meet the high demand during the peak hour. He said the system would be introduced as the Kelana Jaya LRT line was the busiest in the Klang Valley with 290,000 passengers daily and because of the high density at stations like Kelana Jaya, Universiti, Gombak and Ara Damansara. It was also because the Kelana Jaya route showed a consistent increase of 45% in passengers every year since the past few years, he added. He also anticipated a further increase in passengers with the introduction of My100 and My50 travel card for MYKad holders beginning next year.
