Just came back from KL today, after staying for 3 nights at a
hotel at Petaling St which is so close to all the bussie action in
KL. Took plenty of pix too which i will upload later.
Basically, there are these main operators:
Intrakota Consolidated ( the largest and most plentiful )Uses the
same validator as singapore
Metrobus ( 2 man operation )
Park May ( city liner )
Triton, famous for its lances and darts. Also run Putra and KTM
Kommunter Shuttles
Sri Indah, KL-Kajang Express but uses Hinos
Transnasional wif its silver gleaming MANs to Klang
SJ Bus ( only saw one OH )
Selangor Bus
All are full AC except the last with some very old Merz NACs
Around the Chinatown area, the main bus terminus or bus stands
are:
Kota Raya
Pasar Seni LRT station, which also houses the Klang bus
station
Mydin department stall
Jalan Tun HS Lee
Bangkok Bank
Routes still compiling.....and oh one bus svc can be operated by a
few bus operators, like svc 69 is operated by both Intrakota and
Park may
MOst of the areas os. KL do not have bus stop. Ask the locals for
the location or flag it like a taxi.
Fares typically range from 0.60to 1.60 RM for Intrakota, Park
May
Metrobus from 0.70 to 2.00RM. Do note that fare hijacking by the
driver is a rather common occurance.
