Those relying on the KLIA Ekspres to get to Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) 1 and 2 via KL Sentral should take note that both KLIA Ekspres and KLIA Transit services are experiencing disruptions following two incidents of signalling cable theft along the rail corridor. Express Rail Link Sdn Bhd (ERL), the operator of both services, said train operations have since resumed as a combined service.
According to a media statement issued today, the first incident was detected at around 9pm on 11 October between Putrajaya & Cyberjaya Station and Salak Tinggi Station, near KM44. Approximately 180 metres of signalling cable, comprising two 90-metre lengths, were stolen. A second incident was discovered at around 5.22am on 12 October at KM42, involving another 80 metres of cable.
