RapidKL has announced the launch of women-only coaches on the LRT Ampang/Sri Petaling line, set to commence on December 31, 2024.
This marks the first implementation of women-only coaches on RapidKL’s LRT lines.
Previously, the MRT Kajang Line introduced women-only coaches in September 2023, which were later expanded to the MRT Putrajaya Line on April 2024.
It’s noteworthy that prior to these MRT and LRT implementations, KTM Komuter had introduced women-only coaches as early as April 2010, setting a precedent for gender-specific accommodations in Malaysia’s rail services.
This initiative aims to create a safer and more comfortable commuting experience for women.
The pink-themed coaches, clearly marked with signage and floor decals, will be reserved exclusively for women.
Earlier in December, the public noticed stickers being placed on the platform, although none were seen inside the train at that time.
