PUTRAJAYA: The investigation report into the May 24 accident involving two Light Rail Transit (LRT) trains will be presented at the Cabinet meeting tomorrow, said transport minister Wee Ka Siong.
In a Facebook post today, Wee said the report was prepared by a nine-member investigation committee or task force headed by transport ministry secretary-general Isham Ishak.
Wee, who was satisfied with the report, also said it was produced professionally, comprehensive in its details and completed within the 14 days allocated.
“Congratulations to the investigation committee for their hard work over the past several days, working days and nights including going down to the Kelana Jaya LRT operations control centre (OCC), conducting simulation sessions at the scene, interviewing and reviewing operational guide-related documents,” he said.
In the 8.33pm incident on May 24, an out-of-service train collided with another train carrying 213 passengers in the tunnel between the Kampung Baru and KLCC LRT stations on the Kelana Jaya Line.
Wee said there were also several suggestions to improve safety, as well as SOPs for Rapid Rail trains, included in the report.
“Not only will we improve the quality of Rapid Rail services, but these findings and recommendations will also be used to improve Malaysia’s rail service infrastructure in the long run,” he said. - FMT
