KUALA LUMPUR: Prasarana Malaysia Bhd (Prasarana) – asset owner of Rapid KL’s rail and Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) services – announced their special MyCity one-day and three-day passes for unlimited travel on the MRT, LRT, monorail and the BRT-Sunway Line beginning today.
Prasarana’s Group chief operating officer Muhammad Nizam Alias, in a statement said the one-day pass is priced at RM15 while the three-day pass is priced at RM45.
“Basically, if you don’t already have the cashless travel card, you will need to spare an additional RM10 in which RM5 is the cost of the card and RM5 is necessary as the minimum value in the purse.
"Therefore, you will need RM25 to purchase the one-day pass and RM55 to purchase the three-day pass respectively.
"However, if you already have the cashless travel card like Touch ‘n Go, you will only need to pay RM15 for the one-day pass and RM45 for three-day pass,” he said.
Nizam said Prasarana decided to introduce the special passes in response to requests from customers especially international travelers and those outside Kuala Lumpur and Selangor.
“Our regular customers have the privilege of unlimited travel with the use of the My100 pass for 30-day unlimited travels on our rail and BRT networks. On the other hand, these new passes provide immense convenience to non-Malaysians and non-regular users to travel unlimitedly within a short period of time.
“This initiative is also part of our contribution to Malaysia’s tourism industry as traveling on our integrated rail and BRT network will allow you to extensively cover Klang Valley and Selangor, which is blessed with plenty of places of interests, food paradise and shopping outlets,” Nizam said.
Available for purchases at all LRT, monorail, MRT and BRT stations, customers must ensure that their cashless travel cards have a minimum RM5 purse value to facilitate their movements through the ticketing gates.
“At the moment, the package does not cover services on Rapid KL buses and the MRT feeder buses.
"Naturally, we will work on incorporating them as well in the future,” he added.
