00:01Monday morning rush hour took a frustrating turn for thousands of commuters, as the Kalana Jaya LRT line was hit
00:07by yet another disruption.
00:09Commuters took to threads to vent, sharing videos of packed platforms, stationary trains and snaking queues.
00:17Operator Rapid KL said a train broke down at Kalana Jaya station, leaving it stranded on the tracks after a
00:23component failure.
00:24The breakdown cascaded into widespread delays across the line, with commuters at Aradamansara and Kalana Jaya stations bearing the brunt
00:33of the wait.
00:34Rapid KL activated alternative train services and feeder buses to help passengers continue their journeys, but for many heading to
00:41work, the damage to their morning schedules was already done.
00:45Auxiliary police and station personnel were deployed to manage the swelling crowds on platforms and in concourses, as regular announcements
00:52kept commuters updated on the situation.
00:55Rapid KL says its technical team was dispatched to the scene immediately to carry out repairs and restore normal service
01:02as quickly as possible.
01:03Commuters affected by the disruption were advised to switch to alternative lines, including the Ampang Shri Petaling, Kajang and Putrajaya
01:11lines, and to monitor Rapid KL's social media or the MyRapidPulse app for live updates.
