News & Reviews:   RapidKL

In case you missed it, commuters can now use their debit and credit cards to pay for tokens at selected vending machines. The locations that will support these new payment methods are at the Kajang MRT line, with the Tun Razak Exchange (TRX) and Bukit Bintang stations, said RapidKL.

Rapid KL, as a brand for rail and bus service operators in the Klang Valley, will for the first time operate 24 hours on the night of August 30 in conjunction with the 67th National Day celebration. So, what should you know about it?

If you’re living in Klang Valley and frequently use any of RapidKL’s train or bus services, then you must be familiar with the My50 & MyCity Unlimited Travel passes. Well, getting a hold of these passes has become so much easier, as they’re now available for purchase online!

If you frequently commute in Klang Valley, then we’ve got some good news as the bus services are on the verge of better coordination. Furthermore, a new mobile app will also be launched by the end of the year to provide a smoother and more efficient service.

RapidKL has clarified that customers using its services during the month-long free ride period will have to either use a Touch ‘n Go card or collect tokens at the respective station’s customer service office. This is because ticket vending machines in all of Rapid KL’s station will not be in service throughout the period.

Using public transportation can save your time from being stuck in a horrible traffic jam. Not only it helps with that, but it can also save your money if you're using travel passes that come with a special rate like the MY30. However, there are some who don't like the idea as waiting time for public buses can be uncertain and sometimes it'll take long. To make changes, RapidKL announced that the waiting time for selected RapidKL, Go KL, LRT, and Smart Selangor will now be displayed on Google Maps in real-time.
