The target audience for this project is citizens that are not familiar with the rail system or backpackers that comes from foreign countries. The purpose of developing such application is to overcome the problem faced by the commuters when travelling using the current rail system. There is a lack of integration between the existing rail systems, although some route planner application is available in the market, but they are not intensive enough and does not offer the required information to the user. This project aims to deliver an application that will provide correct transit guidance for the commuters. Other than that, the application would be able to provide all necessary transit information such as fare, estimated travel time, station information, nearby attractions and service status to the commuter. The project is executed by adhering to the best practice of Software Engineering and Software Project Management. Each phase of the project is executed in sequence and documented clearly. viii TABLE OF CONTENTS DECLARATION ii APPROVAL FOR SUBMISSION iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS vi ABSTRACT vii TABLE OF CONTENTS viii LIST

In Malaysia, the problem issues are related to traffic congestion and many user cars on the roadway in daily lives. One alternative mode of using a rail network is commuter, LRT, Monorail, MRT and ETS. Therefore, the Geographic Information System (GIS) technology is then used to map and produce the railway networks history and developments in urban public transportation (UPT). The goal of this research is to identify the heatmap trends of the Klang Valley railway stations which included Kuala Lumpur as urban public transport sectors. It was based on the OSM image layer from the year 1990 to 2019 and studied the growth of railway networks through a polyline pattern analysis.

The options varied according to the physical characteristic, socio-economic constraints and transport network design requirements of each alignment options. In addition to the alignment options, two options for railway gauge were also considered, namely standard gauge and meter gauge. 4.2 PLANNING & DESIGN BASIS During the Feasibility Study for the ECRL Phase 2, a set of planning guidelines were used to develop the design concept for the ECRL Phase 2 corridor and the alignment (Table 4-1).

  • Craig Moore (August 2018) Kuala Lumpur the Historic Development Of
    Craig Moore (August 2018) Kuala Lumpur The historic development of urban rail in Kuala Lumpur has been very fragmented, with the system being created, and expanded, through different ownership, construction, mode and operational styles. It was not until 2004, when Rapid KL took operational control of the LRT lines, that some semblance of integration became evident. In 2007 the Monorail was also brought under this brand and since then there has been an attempt to better assimilate urban rail provision in the capital area. Initially, this had mixed success but, more recently, there has been a strengthening of ambition and resources to make this work – and this has largely been successful. This trend, together with recent expansions of rail provision, means that metropolitan KL now has a significant rail ‘footprint’ with 10 lines and several different modes throughout the Federal District and surrounding parts of Selangor. Whilst Rapid KL services (MRT/LRT/Monorail) are undoubtedly the backbone of rail provision, this is supported by KTM suburban rail services and a private airport line to PutraJaya and KLIA. Rapid KL Services The first modern rail provision in KL was the Ampang/Sri Petaling Line (37km to Sri-Petaling and 8.1km branch to Ampang from Chan Sow Lin). It runs on standard-gauge track with third-rail power supply from the Sentul area in the north on an elevated structure along the Gombak River and through the original city centre. This part of the route is the most characterful and the rail elevation is a great way to see the city and its, somewhat, indiscriminate development.

Masyita* and R. Nornadiah Environmental Health Section, Universiti Kuala Lumpur-Institute of Medical Science Technology, Kajang, Selangor, Malaysia Published online: 05 October 2017 ABSTRACT This study analyze the trend of in-train air quality in KTM Commuter in upstream and downstream lines, identify public’s perception and knowledge on in-train air quality. Real time monitoring was conducted by measuring five indoor air parameters (CO2, CO, PM10, temperature and humidity) along Klang Valley Line from SgBuloh until PelabuhanKlang station for five consecutive days, together with a survey on IAQ facts and symptoms related to indoor air pollutants among 129 KTM commuter passengers. Descriptive and correlation tests were performed using SPSS version 23. CO2and PM10 concentration in most of the time have exceeded permissible limit (max = 1449ppm and >0.15mg/m3). CO concentration was below permissible limit (<10ppm), whilsttemperature and humidity were mostly in an acceptable range (23-26°C; 40-70%rh). Keywords: In-train air quality (IAQ); KTM commuter carbon dioxide; carbon monoxide; particulate matter (PM); public perception.

  • What Is the Future of KTM?1 by Dr. Ong Kian Ming Atticus Poon Teck Seong2 Jurleo Jurit3 Penang Institute in Kuala Lumpur (PI In
    What is the future of KTM?1 By Dr. Ong Kian Ming Atticus Poon Teck Seong2 Jurleo Jurit3 Penang Institute in Kuala Lumpur (PI in KL) 1 Addition thanks to Sophia Jamal, Penang Institute intern, for research inputs. 2 Atticus was an intern with Penang Institute from January to March 2018. 3 Jurleo was an intern with Penang Institute from August to September 2017. 1 The recent hype over upcoming railway developments such as the Light Rail Transit (LRT) Extension, the Mass Rapid Transit (MRT), the East Coast Rail Line (ECRL) and the High-Speed Rail (HSR) from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore, appears to have cast the oldest railway operator in the country, Keretapi Tanah Melayu, better known as KTM4, by the wayside. Ridership on the KTM Komuter Services in the Klang Valley has been declining and could decline even further as it suffers from competition from the further expansion of the LRT and MRT lines. On top of this, the expected rollout of the Rail Network Access Agreement (RNAA) that will allow other cargo operators to use the train tracks currently used exclusively by KTM will almost certainly reduce its cargo operations revenue. Currently, the only bright spark in KTM’s ridership is the Electric Train Service (ETS), initially from Kuala Lumpur to Ipoh, and now extended to the north up to Padang Besar, Perlis and to the south to Gemas in Negeri Sembilan. How much will the completion of the double tracking and electrification project from Gemas to Johor Bahru help increase KTM’s revenue and profitability? Will the double track project upgrading in the Klang Valley increase the reliability of KTM’s service and attract more passengers and revenue for KTM? Will KTM’s relationship with the Railway Asset Corporation (RAC), the statutory body which owns the KTM stations and the tracks, help or harm KTM’s profitability moving forward, as RAC seeks to monetize more and more of its physical assets? This report will examine these issues and by doing so, shed some light on the answer to the question of a viable future for KTM in this country.
