The system currently consists of three light rapid transit (LRT) lines, two mass rapid transit (MRT) lines and a monorail line, with another MRT and LRT line currently under construction.[2]
The LRT (narrow profile) and MRT (wide profile) lines operate on standard gauge (1,435 mm (4 ft 8+1⁄2 in)) rail, while the KL Monorail operates on an ALWEG straddle beam. Train services operate from 6:00 a.m. and typically end before midnight daily,[3] with frequencies varying from approximately three minutes during peak hours to fourteen minutes during non-peak hours.[4]
