TUMPAT, May 8 — Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad has been urged to continue the special express train service offered during the festive season to reduce traffic congestion in Kelantan during the “balik kampung” exodus.
“As we know, traffic flow in Kelantan is always congested, especially during the festive season, so with this special express train, it helps reduce congestion and road accidents,” he told a press conference after flagging-off the Keluarga Malaysia Aidilfitri Special Express Train Service at the Wakaf Bharu KTM Station, here last night.
“Despite the long journey, the train service helps to reduce the number of vehicles on the road and also provides a safer travel,” he said. “Based on our record, 803 tickets had been sold, which exceeded the number of seats offered as there are passengers getting on and off at several sectors along the route.
