Remember that epic LRT breakdown that stalled so ma y people? (OK there have been several but hear me out) But anyway I was supposed to meet a friend for dinner that night and he thought he will be stuck in KL till late night. I told him to take the Skypark Link instead. He never heard about it, but took it and was at our dinner early. He evaded the epic stuck Ness in KL and rode in comfort home.
Rip Skypark Link tho ๐ญ
Low ridership caused them to suspend Skypark Link services for at least a year (since Feb 2023). There are 2 provisional stations along the branch after Subang Jaya, which I'm not sure if there are active plans to build them.
Yea most of us who use Skypark Link regularly knew it would end one day due to the low ridership. What galls me is barely anyone knows about the service. So its low ridership is also due to lack of promotion.
Truly a "1 time it's a tragedy, many times it's a statistics" stuff. ๐
But as you demonstrated, there are many ways in and out of the city center. There are backup routes in most cases.
