11. But Singapore, despite its car-lite vision, is still highly car centric. Can we in Malaysia build our own good walkways & truly reduce car dominance in urban centres? It's just got to be comfortable, useful, safe & interesting... 🔚

The announcement of 22km of covered walkways for KL surely sounds like good news.

Protection from sun & rain is a fundamental part of good walkways, especially in tropical climates. After all, the 4 pillars of walkability are
✅Comfortable
👋Useful
🙋Safe
🤌Interesting. ⏩

Well done RapidKL 👏🏼👏🏼

If this happens on your watch, just open the fare gates so people can actually exit the station.

Train Delay: Kelana Jaya Line

A train is being operated manually between Masjid Jamek and Pasar Seni stations due to a brake issue.

Train movement at other stations is expected to be slower, with longer stops at platforms.

Thank you.

Shocking to find out that this lovely brick-styled and dense housing estate (with many features illegal in Malaysia) built as part of an integrated township development with a planned rail link was developed by… the UK subsidiary of Malaysia’s YTL Corporation!
