Excerpt from an email enquiry on 3 April 2007: "Saya tinggal di serendah dan bekerja di Shah Alam. Ada ka syarikat bas yang melalui laluan shah alam ke rawang/serendah/batang kali/RASA" Response on 4 April 2007:
Laluan yang kami suggest ialah dengan KTM Komuter yang baru yang akan buka di Serendah, dan juga Batang Kali dan Rasa. Dari Serendah, Encik boleh ambil Komuter ke KL Sentral. Dari KL Sentral, Encik boleh ambil yang berikut:
- bas Rapid T64 ke Taman Sri Muda
- bas Rapid T80 ke UiTM Shah Alam
- Komuter ke stesen2 Batu Tiga, Shah Alam atau Padang Jawa
Bas dari rawang ialah seperti berikut:
- SJ 72: Country Homes Rawang - Pasar Seni KL
- Metrobus 43: Country Homes Rawang - Bangkok Bank KL
- Komuniti 207: Rawang, Batu Arang - Bangkok Bank, KL Counter response on 5 April 2007:
SAYA BEKERJA DI SEKSYEN 2 SHAH ALAM. TETAPI KOMUTER MEMUNYAI PELBAGAI MASALAH SEPERTI :
A. lambat - 1 jam 10 minit untuk sampai ke stesyen komuter shah alam dpd rawang.
B. Tiada pengangkutan awam seperti bas dpd stesyen komuter shah alam ke tempat kerja. Kena naik teksi dan kosnya tentulah tinggi. Bas yang ada perlu jalan kaki ke perhentian bas yang jauhnya maybe 500m atau 1 km. dULU ADA BAS DARIPADA stesyen tetapi dia bawa round seksyen 16, 17, 2 dan sampai ke tempat kerja setengah jam kemudian. Walhal dari stesyen ke tempat kerja saya jika terus hanyalah 10 minit sahaja. Buang masa.
C. komuter tak pernah ikut masa. jika jadual tertulis sampai shah alam jam 7.58 tetapi sampai 8.15
D. sering rosak dan tunggu berjam lamanya.
E.Naik rapidkl ke shah alam ok. tapi dpd shah alam bila balik kerja mengambil masa 1.5 jam melalui bangsar yang jam.
kalau ada bas daripada rawang ke shah alam melalui lebuhraya ianya akan mengambil masa 40 minit sahaja. Ada pilihan lain? Counter counter response on 5 April 2007: Actually tak ada bas yang melalui Lebuhraya Utara Selatan PLUS, dari Rawang ke Shah Alam.
Bas Rapid T80 ada melalui stesen KTM Batu Tiga lepas tu dia masuk Persiaran Kayangan Persiaran Dato Menteri

KUALA LUMPUR, 3 Apr - less than a month’s time the public would be able to stop at three new railway stations after Rawang.
The three stations are Serendah, Batang Kali and Rasa, which is part of the Rawang-Ipoh double-tracking project which was completed in December last year.
At present, KTM commuters have to disembark at the Rawang station and take another train, called the shuttle service, to the three new destinations.
“Infrastructure, track and stations have all been completed but we need another year to complete the signalling, communication and electrification systems,” said KTMB managing director Datuk Mohd Salleh Abdullah.

Suhaini Aznam (The Star)
Since the Government’s announcement of a RM10bil allocation to upgrade the Klang Valley transport system, various ‘experts’ have offered unsolicited advice. But according to the man in charge, the final route will be well plotted, Suhaini Aznam has the story.
KUALA LUMPUR, 24 Sept - FOLLOWING the crow’s direct flight path, urban commuters have found that their fastest way into the city is by light rapid transit (LRT). Speeding over traffic snarls on the highway, a total of 320,000 commuters take the line daily, most of them professionals and students. The LRT and the monorail are the future. Congested Penang was recently allocated RM2.8bil for a second bridge and RM1.2bil for a light monorail system.
Of the RM10bil allocated to the Klang Valley under Budget 2007, RM7bil will be spent on extending existing lines to capture densely populated housing enclaves. The Kelana Jaya line will reach out to Subang Jaya and USJ; the Sri Petaling line to Puchong.
In addition, Syarikat Prasarana Nasional Bhd (SPNB) has also been tasked with building a totally new line to Kota Damansara.
The routes are still on the drawing board. SPNB currently has 13 options for the Kelana Jaya line and 12 options for the Sri Petaling line. A finalised blueprint will only be out in October.

Have just heard news that KLIA is planning for the ERL to stop at Air Asia's Low Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT) on its way to KLIA. That's another nice way to get to the LCCT, besides taking the RM9 SkyBus! :) If this is the case, I wonder if this LCCT Terminal station would be included within the KLIA Transit service, to make it: KL Sentral <> Bandar Tasik Selatan <> Putrajaya/Cyberjaya <> Salak Tinggi <> LCCT <> KLIA ?? Do verify or deny this news if you know anything...

Big news! Rumours of the extension of the Kelana Jaya LRT line past its Kelana Jaya terminal were topped by the Deputy PM's announcement that, not only will it be extended all the way to USJ, there'll also be a new line running from the city centre through Damansara Heights to Kota Damansara. The other end of this new line will reach all the way to the heavily populated area of Cheras! The Sri Petaling arm of the erstwhile called Star line will also be extended to reach another heavily populated area, Puchong -- brilliant idea! I don't know whether I'm being middle-class/suburban-centric, but it seems that finally, these LRT lines are beginning to make sense, instead of running through boondocks areas. The only thing needed now are parts approximating to a circle line to link up the radial fingers of this network.... Hang on! There are the new monorail lines that were announced not too long ago. Give us some time and we'll try to superimpose this hypothetical scenario for you (new LRT line and extension slated for 2010). In the meantime, you can read the article in The Star about this news at this link, or from the pasted text below.
