Approximately 40% of #truck #drivers have left their posts to join the installation of the East Coast Rail Link (#ECRL) project
This raised concerns over a shortage of drivers in the #KlangValley and its adverse impact on local #construction projects
The key reason for the migration was that working for ECRL gives better pay, had fixed hours and there's less hassle with dealing with enforcement agencies

A lot of #finetuning will be required to ensure that #passenger journeys on the #EastCoastRailLink (#ECRL) from #KotaBharu in #Kelantan to #Gombak in #Selangor can be completed in four hours while ensuring cargo movements can take place without fuss.
Cost cutting led to the deferment of #doubletracking, though #civilwork such as #tunnel, #bridge, elevated segments and earthworks are built now to allow for speedy addition of another track later

The #price structure for the East Coast Rail Link's (#ECRL) services will most likely be unveiled in 2026.
As a regulated industry, #ticket prices are subject to approval from the Land Public Transport Agency (#APAD), among others.
Ticket prices cannot be so high until many people cannot afford it.
At the same time, it also cannot be too low until it poses a problem for #expressbus operators.
