There are obvious reasons why there is heavy traffic congestion on the roads of Kuala Lumpur, despite the government’s many investments in public transport; the uprise of large-scale automobile retail is only the tip of the iceberg. Being a city smaller than the city-state of Singapore, KL's public transportation is less comprehensive, and despite having an extensive train network with stations in strategic locations, there are still significant commuter transport issues.

It is not surprising to see a bus caught in a traffic jam and it's common to notice bus drivers relaxing and not aggressively pursuing their destinations.

Although running back-to-back, buses should be able to fetch more passengers at a time without slowing down commuter deadlines. To solve the problem, Rapid KL could create schedules that bus drivers must follow, so that drivers who are ahead of schedule can slow down and space out arrival frequencies. Bus route schedu...
