SEPANG: It is still too early to assess the effectiveness of the Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) Putrajaya Line in reducing traffic congestion, says Transport Minister Anthony Loke.
“This is because the congestion at peak hours is still critical, including on the MEX Highway, the Federal Highway and the Kuala Lumpur-Sungai Besi Highway, especially in the mornings and evenings.
The Putrajaya MRT line was launched by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and began full operation on March 16. He said the number of passengers recorded during the first two weeks, when trips were free, was 100,000 per day. Meanwhile, Loke said the renewable energy programme initiative would be extended to public transport stations across the country, especially for the rail transport sector.
