Civil engineering (General) In Kuala Lumpur the Government of Malaysia is investing on several public transports including KL Monorail. Monorail is a transportation system based on a single rail, which act as its sole support and its guide way. The purpose of the study is to assess the effectiveness of monorail transportation system performance in Kuala Lumpur through the capacity analysis and quality of service evaluation of the train those it look at user’s perception and experience by using the system. Data on passenger load of the KL Monorail obviously showing a pattern according to direction and Passenger load with the highest number recorded at Raja Chulan station during AM peak hour period for both directions. Capacities of the monorail are 2493 p/hr for KLS to TSA direction and 2691 p/hr for TSA to KLS direction. Research found that, more than one segment facing over limits on the passenger demand compared to the ability. There are many of the segments of the KL Monorail service track are facing LOS of E and F. Regarding to the founding, some suggestion improvement that can be apply to increase the effectiveness of monorail transportation system performance in Kuala Lumpur in context of transferring people along their track service. 2012-01 Thesis http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/29867/ http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/29867/5/ZulhilmiHarmanMFKA2012.pdf application/pdf en public masters Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Faculty of Civil Engineering Faculty of Civil Engineering
