Promotional charges at Gombak Parking Complex extended

Current promotional rate of RM4 per entry at the Gombak LRT Station Multi Level Parking Complex will be extended until end of the year.

Prasarana Integrated Development Sdn Bhd (PRIDE) which manages the complex said a review of the rates would only be undertaken in 2014.

“With this announcement, we hope more people will use our LRT services. It’s hassle-free, more cost effective and convenient compared to driving into the city,” says PRIDE Chief Executive Officer Encik Rudyanto Azhar.

Built at a cost of almost RM30 million, the complex which is connected directly to the Gombak LRT Station, provides 1,260 parking bays including 158 bays exclusively for lady drivers, and 24 bays for the physically challenged on the Ground Floor.

Datuk Seri Kong Cho Ha Transport Minister officially opened the parking complex on March 1, which was built by Syarikat Prasarana Negara Berhad (Prasarana), the holding company for PRIDE, as one of Government’s NKRA initiative to promote the usage of public transport amongst the public.

Rudyanto said the parking system is operational via MyRapid Card, the Prasarana stored value card which integrates with the LRT and monorail ticketing system. Hence, non-LRT users would also need to have MyRapid Cards to enter the complex,” Rudyanto said.
