Pemandu's Urban Public Transport (UPT) NKRA (as of 22mar11)
Aims to:
Raise the modal share to 13% in 2010 and to 25% by 2012 during the morning peak hours of 7am – 9am in Klang Valley, followed by separate plans to also improve public transport in Johor Bahru and Penang
Improve reliability and journey times
Enhance comfort and convenience
Improve accessibility and connectivity such that the percentage of the population living within 400 metres of a public transport route is increased from 63% to 75% in 2012.
Early results:
Increase in LRT capacity with the introduction of 22 four-car train sets on the Kelana Jaya LRT line since put into effect up to December 2010. Around 2.21 million more commuters have taken the LRT in the first 11 months of 2010.
Reduced journey time of around 30 mins along the four BET (Bus Expressway Transit) routes in the Klang Valley with increased ridership in all routes.
Integrated Transport Terminal (ITT) in Bandar Tasik Selatan has been completed at the end of 2010 and will divert approximately 500 – 600 express buses from the city centre. The ITT will also act as a key transportation hub (bus, LRT, KTM, ERL, taxis)
In 2012:
Streamlining the capacity of a system that is already at its limits
The capacity on the KTM Komuter and LRT lines will be increased by 1.7 to 4 times For KTM Komuter, the current capacity will be increased from ~33,000 to ~95,000 passengers and the Kelana Jaya LRT line capacity will be increased from ~23,000 to ~100,000 passengers during the morning peak hour.
Refurbishment and purchase of KTM rolling stock and train sets will be carried out. Thirty Eight (38) new 6 car-train sets, each with a capacity of 800 passengers, and existing fifteen (15) 3 car-train sets will be delivered and ready respectively for service by the end of 2011.
A dedicated right-of-way for buses across 12 major corridors in the Klang Valley by 2012. These corridors will carry a total of 35,000 to 55,000 passengers during the morning peak hour (which is 6-9% of the total public transport ridership).
The size of the existing bus fleet will be increased by 850 buses. This will improve the services on the current routes and provide services to 53 new routes for currently unserved areas.
Stimulating demand to attract people to public transport
An integrated ticketing platform and fare structure will be introduced (the 1Ticket, 1Seamless Journey concept) across all operators in the Klang Valley
Adding approximately 6,800 new parking spaces across 14 rail stations outside the urban core
Enhancing feeder bus services to KTM & LRT stations
Upgrading high-traffic stations, terminals and bus stops
Increasing physical connectivity between modes such as covered walkways.
Enforcement and monitoring efforts will be taken to ensure operators adhere to the minimum service and operation standards. This will be done by integrated backend IT systems and launching of joint on-the-ground efforts across all major enforcement agencies.
Reducing congestion in the city centre
2 major Integrated Transport Terminals (ITTs) outside the city core will be built to cater for express buses (ITT Bandar Tasik Selatan for southern sector – ready at the end of 2010 and ITT Gombak for Eastern Sector – ready by the end of 2011). Another ITT for the Northern sector will also be built in the future, with the location potentially in Sungai Buloh. The two ITTs in Bandar Tasik Selatan and Gombak will divert more than 800 inter-city buses from the southern and eastern sector from the city core daily.
Enhancing convenience
Availability of two types of public transport hubs in the city centre
Inter-urban terminal hubs at Pasarama Kota (formerly called Bus Stand Klang), Hentian Putra, Puduraya and 12 Hentian Akhir Bandar (HAB) will be refurbished and upgraded. When completed, the inter-urban terminals and HABs will enhance the convenience and comfort of public transport users.
After 2012
Managing Demand
Initiatives will be taken to increase the relative attractiveness of public transport over private vehicles to reduce traffic congestion on public roads. An example that has been implemented successfully in Singapore and London is the congestion pricing for private vehicles.
