In a statement, Rapid Rail Sdn Bhd announced that passengers were allowed to enter in stages, with station staff regulating movement to the platform to avoid overcrowding.
To facilitate passenger movement, free shuttle bus services are still available to the Dang Wangi LRT Station (bus stop in front of Decathlon KL City Centre) and the Ampang Park LRT Station (bus stop in front of Avenue K).
