Transport Masterplan Crossroads

The World Bank’s report “12th Malaysia Economic Monitor: Transforming Urban Transport” reveals that residents of Greater Kuala Lumpur spend a crazy 250 million hours a year stuck in traffic during morning peak hours, costing up to 2.2 percent of the GDP last year. Today we take a look at the current state of the existing public transport system, and what improvements need to be made.

This is a report by Nadiah Abdul Aziz.
