Discounts to be offered

In a statement by Express Rail Link Sdn Bhd (ERL), its CEO Noormah Noor said the price hike was due to a significant rise in operating and maintenance costs in line with its concession agreement with the government.

She added that the previous price increase was in 2016 and said the move was to “support efforts to maintain high service standards and invest in improvements to enhance passenger experience.”

However, Noormah said ERL is working with several partners to offer exclusive ticket discounts of up to 30%, with further details to be unveiled in due course.
