Exciting isn’t it? To have a whole range of new MRT line all the way to Putrajaya! So what’s the hype is all about if you may ask. This new Putrajaya MRT Phase 2 line has 36 stations from Kwasa Damansara to Putrajaya Sentral with 10 interchanges and connecting stations, including Titiwangsa, Ampang Park, Chan Sow Lin and Sungai Besi. This also means you can expect a massive change in traffic and less congestion (Hopefully!)
Great things come with great deals we say. If you want a hassle free ride, as a commuter it’s important for you to know some trick and hacks or let’s just say travel passes which make your journey a lot more convenient. Here are some amazing Travel Passes initiated by RapidKL.
