There will be temporary changes to the last stop and route for RapidKL buses going through Jalan Pahang and Jalan Ipoh starting tomorrow.

The route will also be changed to pass through Jalan Hang Lekiu before entering Jalan Tun Perak, heading towards Jalan Raja Laut.

"The buses will go through Jalan Munsi Abdullah and Dang Wangi before continuing onto Jalan Raja Laut as usual," the statement added.
