Kumpool, a local van and bus e-hailing service has continued to expand its availability in Klang Valley. In fact, after recent expansion to the Bukit Gasing constituency in Petaling Jaya, it is now also available in the Kampung Tunku constituency starting today.

59 routes have been added in Kampung Tunku, including destinations to Light Rapid Transit (LRT) stations, schools, restaurants, houses of worship and others. Furthermore, Kumpool will also be offering the first 10,000 trips for free until 11 July 2022.

The State Representative (ADUN) for Kampung Tunku, Lim Yi Wei said that among the 59 routes are the 99 Speedmart at Jalan 22/49 in Section 22. This would benefit the locals as the previous RapidKL bus service was terminated due to insufficient drivers.

Moreover, Yi Wei hoped that the chosen routes, especially within commercial areas can boost the local economy and draw more customers. The Kampung Tunku ADUN also said that her team will be issuing an infographic on the matter so that residents - especially senior citizens - could get to know of the service.

Kumpool Ride offers dispersion of traffic congestion and parking woes at a rate of RM1 for easier, comfortable and safer transportation access every day from 8am to 8pm. The app can be downloaded from the Apple App Store or Googles Play Store and you can find out more about the service via its official website here.

Kumpool is a division of Causeway Link, one of the largest public bus company provider in Johor Bahru. Previously, the service was only operational in Johor Bahru but it is now set for further expansion, recently offering its services in Klang Valley.
