LRT station upgrades completed by end 2011
LRT station upgrades completed by end 2011 KUALA LUMPUR: Syarikat Prasarana Negara Bhd (Prasarana) has begun upgrading the Masjid Jamek, Hang Tuah and Titiwangsa light rail transit (LRT) stations to implement disabled-friendly features such as link bridges from the Kelana Jaya to Ampang LRT lines as well as lifts, ramps, toilets, chair lifts and elevators.
The upgrades are scheduled for completion by the end of 2011.
Prasarana will be spending RM51 million to upgrade these three LRT stations to provide an integrated transportation system with improved connectivity, accessibility and convenience for travelers.
The initiative includes a six-storey parking lot at the Gombak LRT station with 1,260 bays and one level specifically allocated for women.
The parking lot will also feature a parking guidance system, closed circuit television (CCTV) cameras and a panic button system.
Once completed, the parking rate would be a fixed rate of RM3 per entry for LRT commuters. Until then, a temporary parking area with 300 bays is available for commuters during the construction period.
