New MRT System in Town!

New MRT system spreading from northern Selangor to Southern of Selangor will be made available in 2016. First question that we may asked is what is the differences from the LRT and monorel that we have now? The trains are bigger and of latest design and technology, as compared monorel and LRT.

I was at the Bangsar LRT and there was a small exhibition on the new MRT system, with the maps and coverage area shown. For Cheras people, it is good to hear that there are stops at Bukit Mewah, Leisure Mall, Phoenix Plaza and Kajang town. Going for Hj Samuri Satay in Kajang town will be more frequent and accessible to more people.

At Leisure Mall station, you can also go to the nearby XO fish head noodle or have some friends get-together near Bukit Mewah station at the nearby Old Town White Coffee or Pappa Rich for some coffees and local delicacies.

Being a regular LRT customer now, I am glad to hear about the new MRT system and the coverage which is from Sg Buloh, OneUtama, TTDI, Subang, Cheras and Kajang for about 51km long. My only worry is when the train has technical problem, a lot of people will be affected. Hope the MRT management do look into this risk management.
