All KTMB stations must have lifts within one year, says Transport Ministry

SEPANG: All Keretapi Tanah Melayu Bhd (KTMB) stations must be equipped with lifts within one year, said Transport Minister Anthony Loke.

He said this order was issued following frequent complaints over the lack of lifts at commuter stations, which inconveniences travellers, especially those with disabilities, senior citizens and pregnant women.

Loke said RAC had been directed to prepare an audit report together with KTMB for urgent submission to the ministry regarding stations which should be given priority in the provision of facilities. RAC looks after rail assets, including land along railway lines, and manages land for commercial development.
