But, the is no connectivity between the 2 Platform of Ampang Line. A bridge (something similar to KL Monorail Bukit Bintang station) should be built to connect the 2 Platform so that passengers can cross over from both side,rather than travelling all the way underneath across the busy street or subway…

But still a good interchange should have integrated ticketing with a short direct access to another line (both platform) for paid passenger without having commuters to queue & pay twice !! Verdict : Not good enough.

Thanks for your feedback.

According to the plan there would be lifts/elevators between the Ampang Line and Kelana Jaya line.

As for the lack of connectivity between the two platforms, this is a weakness of the design of the Masjid Jamek station (Ampang Line) and will cost a lot of money to resolve.

The proposal that we are showcasing here is a way to improve the connectivity quickly, with plans for more integration in the future.

In any case – Prasarana has their own plan for the interchange and as soon as we learn the details we will be happy to share it with everyone.

Regards, Moaz for TRANSIT

Also think of the disabled, for a seamless integrated line, there is no elevators from the kelana jaya to the ampang line. It won’t work.
