ECRL-Gombak LRT pedestrian bridge to be completed by March 2027
KUALA LUMPUR: A covered pedestrian bridge linking the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) Gombak station directly to the Gombak LRT station is expected to be completed by March next year.
A covered pedestrian bridge connecting the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) Gombak station to the Gombak LRT station is set for completion by March 2027. Malaysia Rail Link Sdn Bhd (MRL) disclosed that integration of public transport and pedestrian access at the ECRL Gombak Integrated Terminal (TBG) station was factored into the initial planning stages.
The bridge will link both the ECRL and LRT stations, with an additional pedestrian route leading to TBG. While awaiting the permanent bridge's completion, MRL will provide a temporary walkway via Prasarana Malaysia Bhd's facilities to facilitate passenger movement between the stations, commencing with ECRL services in December. This temporary route will prioritize passenger safety, comfort, and ease of movement, including those carrying luggage.
MRL is also exploring the possibility of a shuttle service between the two stations, particularly for passengers with luggage. The access facilities are part of MRL's efforts to integrate the Gombak ECRL station with the existing rail and public transport network. MRL expressed gratitude for public attention, views, and feedback, and pledged to continue collaborating with relevant parties to ensure the provision of safe, practical, and user-friendly facilities.
