There will be free travel on Rapid KL MRT, LRT, BRT, Monorail, and bus services for 1 month starting from 16 June 2022. This free Rapid KL travel was announced by Malaysia Prime Minister Dato’ Sri Ismail Sabri bin Yaakob at the opening of MRT Putrajaya Line Phase 1.
There will also be free travel on KTM Komuter Klang Valley Sector train services for 1 month starting from 16 June 2022.
The Malaysian Government has provided RM155 million in subsidies for this 1 month of free travel on Rapid KL public transport and KTM Komuter Klang Valley Sector train services. “I hope every city folk will take this opportunity to try public transport. Leave your vehicles at Park N Ride,” Dato’ Sri Ismail Sabri bin Yaakob said.

Kampung Batu MRT Station is the closest to Kuala Lumpur city centre, but not reaching down enough just yet. I have created a simple guide on how to connect further to the LRT Ampang and Sri Petaling Lines from the MRT Putrajaya Line Phase 1 as an interim solution.
