KUALA LUMPUR: Rapid Rail has activated an alternative rail service following disruption to the Kelana Jaya Light Rail Transit (LRT) due to a blackout at several stations at 7.50 pm last night.
Rapid Rail in a statement said the alternative rail service that was initiated will see all trains from Putra Heights redirected to the Pasar Seni LRT station and trains coming from Gombak being redirected to the Damai LRT station.
"The Kelana Jaya Light Rail Transit has been disrupted due to blackout at five underground stations between the Ampang Park LRT station and Masjid Jamek LRT station. The blackout resulted in a service breakdown of facilities like elevators, lifts, escalators and lighting," read the statement.
Steps have been taken to identify the cause of the disruption.
