This is huge and much-awaited news for those who live north of the Klang Valley. KTM has announced that the Komuter Tanjung Malim – KL Sentral route will operate with a frequency of 15 minutes on workday peak hours. It starts next Monday, April 22.
Those within the Klang Valley might not understand as they benefit from the LRT and MRT, but this announcement is a big upgrade that makes the KTM Komuter a viable way to commute to KL and back for those living in Kuang, Rawang, Serendah and further north.
According to the rail operator, one can expect time savings of between 15 to 50 minutes with this improvement. If it’s been awhile since you’ve been on the KTM Komuter, this line takes you direct to KL Sentral and passes by Sungai Buloh, Kepong, Segambut, Putra (PWTC), Bank Negara and the old KL train station. You can switch to the MRT at Sg Buloh and Kepong Sentral stations.
By the way, KTM Komuter has adopted the open payment system, which means that you can wave your Visa/Mastercard debit or credit cards to pay, aside from the usual Touch n Go.

A good step forward to a better Malaysia but frankly we are still way way way behind advanced and modern countries like China, Japan and Korea. Our public transports is only slightly better than backward countries like India and Bangladesh. Never the less a step forward is still better than a step backwards. Just wish out KTM can move faster. So slow like kereta lembu.
15 mins not fast enough? But then you peeps voted out HSR wat. So apalagi mau?
