At the time of writing, the public transport operator has informed that the stations between Ampang Park and Kelana Jaya have been closed to the public until further notice. In the meantime, it is urging users of the Gombak – Putra Heights LRT line to seek alternative methods of transport for travelling to their respective destinations, including the free bus service it had set up at selected stations.

In addition, it has also reconfigured its trains to shuttle passengers between the still-functional routes including Gombak to Damai, and Ara Damansara to Putra Heights.
— Ask Rapid KL (@AskRapidKL) November 8, 2022 The public transport operator has yet to reveal the cause of today’s disruption, though it is speculated that the issue may be similar to the one it had experienced the day before. On that note, Rapid KL stated that it experienced problems with the LRT service’s automatic driving system near the KLCC LRT station at 8:39 pm yesterday, resulting in the previous disruption. As mentioned earlier, the issue had only been resolved at 6 am this morning.

Much like yesterday’s disruption, Rapid KL did not say how long the maintenance will last. (Source: Rapid KL [1] [2] [3])
