Rapid KL announced that repair works had been completed, allowing trains to resume their regular service at 1:27pm today. The restoration of power supply facilitated the resumption of train operations that had been disrupted at the Taman Equine Station. Alternative train services that were in place during the disruption have now been terminated. Train frequency is being adjusted gradually to maintain stable operations. Shuttle bus services will continue to be available until 3pm, with their schedule being reevaluated based on operational needs. Rapid KL stated that further infrastructure restoration work will proceed overnight during engineering hours. The operator expressed regret for the inconvenience caused to passengers and praised them for their patience and cooperation during the incident. Passengers were advised to stay informed about the latest service updates through Rapid KL's social media channels and the MyRapid PULSE travel application.",
